G.O.L.D. was founded on September 23, 2007. During my first year teaching in a middle school setting, I witnessed a severe altercation between young ladies who attended my school. When the time came to sponsor clubs at the school, I knew what I had to do. As such, I began my own and formed G.O.L.D. in response to the need to foster a mentoring organization for young ladies. We continue to provide positive experiences for girls that will impact them for the rest of their lives. --Ms. Lecinda Jennings, Founder
