“Gems for Gems holds a special place in my heart. I had watched and supported Gems for Gems from the sidelines for a couple of years and seeing the ripples of change and awareness roll through the world around them; young and old, I knew I wanted to be a part of it.  I knew I wanted to be a part of the bigger picture and help in our community, in any way that I could.

I finally had the courage to join this amazing team almost a year ago. I had absolutely no idea how much it would teach and change me through empowering me to become a better version of myself!

What I love about Gems for Gems is that the initiatives Gems offers are innovative in the sense of providing a solution of how to move forward from tough experiences in our communities while supporting the growth to “empower women to empower themselves”. It’s truly life-changing for all involved.

Gems for Gems is bold in that it chooses initiatives that aren’t run of the mill,  they may stir up some beliefs but the end goal is to always make a difference; no matter what they are up against because they truly believe in them!

I cannot wait to see and be a part of all that is coming for Gems for Gems while we continue to “be the change” as we gain momentum and grow!”
