ATL Team Launch and Latest News
The GEMS and Jewels Empowerment Group kicked off their season with an event for girls and parents. The team will have its first meeting in mid February. GEMS Co-Founder and GFC Coach, Kara said about the GFC partnership, "I feel that by working with girls in our group and empowering them in many areas, we are tackling the root cause of low self esteem – of which I personally suffered from as a young teen girl."
As part of the kick off event, Jess Weiner donated books to girls who attended. She also featured the GEMS and Jewels program and their partnership with GFC on her website. Check it out here!
