One Person Scheduled to be Honored




Our local mission is to foster intergenerational relationships between teen girls and elderly women living in senior homes through monthly facials and makeovers.

Our national mission is to create the structure and provide the resources that encourage compassionate teen leadership through local intergenerational programming.
Meet Rachel, President and Founder of GlamourGals - Honored HOBY Alumni at the HOBY Gala Event and Silent Auction in April

In 2000, Rachel Doyle started the first GlamourGals chapter in Commack, NY as a passionate, motivated 17-year-old looking to honor her grandmother. Today, Ms. Doyle is GlamourGals’ full-time President, managing the chapters while also leading the fundraising effort through collaboration with the Executive Board, Advisory Board, and Board of Directors of GlamourGals. One of the key factors contributing to the success and efficiency of the programs growth has been the utilization of technology. Ms. Doyle has built a cutting edge virtual community called GGChapters.org to organize, energize, and mobilize the volunteers. Along with her team, she manages this secure space for volunteer programming collaboration. In addition, Ms. Doyle has developed a calendar of leadership events and initiatives.

Ms. Doyle has been called “an inspirational speaker,” and her speeches have been noted as “containing knowledge beyond her years.” A 2005 graduate of Cornell University with a B.S. in Policy Analysis and Management, she is invited to speak regularly all over the country on the topic of leadership skills development and has been keynote speaker for conferences, schools, trade organizations, and business groups. –from Glamourgals.org
