Our Mission

GLOW (Giving Love to Our Women) is an organization dedicated to helping domestic violence victims and survivors regain their confidence and take back control of their lives. More than 1 in 3 women in the United States have experienced and are affected by domestic violence. GLOW’s mission is to help women gain a renewed sense of their beauty, agency, and confidence.

We currently assist women in the greater New York and Connecticut areas by collecting self-care products and donating them to organizations that help address domestic abuse violence. By promoting and providing access to this form of self-care, we help victims renew their confidence and take back their lives.

our founder

Annabelle B.

I am a 15-year-old girl from New York City, and I now live in Greenwich. I love giving back to my community and am particularly passionate about working with women and children. When I was 12, I volunteered as a literacy tutor for a second-grade boy who lived with his mother in a domestic abuse shelter. That experience opened my eyes to this heartbreaking issue and the challenges they faced, sparking my passion for helping women affected by domestic violence and abuse. I also have a personal interest in makeup and self-care, and these two passions combined inspired me to create GLOW. I believe that one person can begin to address the world's vast problems—one step and one individual at a time.
