GLOW (Go Light Our World) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Franklin County, Florida, founded by St. George Island resident, Teresa Manning after she noticed a significant need for middle and high school girls to have a dedicated space centered on positivity, self-care, and confidence-building.
Founded in 2020, GLOW hosts spring and fall events that connect girls with local community leaders who share their leadership and career experiences, from sheriff deputies and firefighters to entrepreneurs and professionals with diverse backgrounds, giving students real-life role models and a stronger vision for what is possible.
SGIUMC supports GLOW through monetary donations and volunteers. If you want to be a part of this important mission of the church, please call the church office at 850-927-2031.
