ILLUMINATE CELEBRATION

The Illuminate dinner raises vital funds our programs and operations, with nearly 100% of proceeds going directly to GlamourGals Foundation, Inc., thanks to the generous underwriting by Mr. and Mrs. Tisch.

CREATING MORE CONNECTED COMMUNITIES

GlamourGals Mission

We empower high school and college volunteers to bring joy to elderly residents in senior care through companionship and complimentary beauty makeovers.


Since 2000, our program has transformed lives:
Seniors experience renewed community and self-worth, while teen volunteers develop essential leadership skills and compassion through meaningful connections.

“Congratulations on a wonderful event. It only reinforced how right I was 15 years ago when you told me your vision. Keep doing great things.”

— Andrew Tisch, Co-Chairman, Loews Corporation

“Great cause, great event, thanks for the invitation.”

— Joshua Dorchak, Partner, Morgan Lewis
