About GlamourGals, Mr. Tisch says:
“I first got interested in GlamourGals when Rachel Doyle told me about the organization close to 15 years ago. I asked her if the mission was to provide makeovers to senior citizens or to be a leadership program for middle school and high school girls. She thought about it and said it was both. I asked her to give me a growth plan to take it from a few chapters to 25 chapters to extend the influence of the organization. When we began to see the larger potential, GG became an even more exciting idea—teaching leadership while doing good. It’s win: win. And it continues to bring together young women and seniors to add joy to a lot of lives.
GlamourGals mission will be even more salient in the coming years as senior citizens again feel safe and secure. GG will need to re-establish much of the presence and goodwill among seniors and administrators who have had to deal with recent health crises. This will take leadership that only GlamourGals can demonstrate.”
