Eghosa Asemota, Alumni Council Member


Eghosa Asemota is now a member of GlamourGals Alumni Council.

Eghosa joined GlamourGals as a volunteer at Thomas A. Edison High School in Jamaica, NY where she also served as the chapter's president in her senior year. Currently, Eghosa is studying Political Science and is Pre-Law at Adelphi University.

"My favorite Glamour Gals experience would have to be when my chapter along with a few GG Correspondents created 100 birthday cards for Gertrude Panem, a resident at Brookdale Senior Living. On her 100th birthday, I delivered the cards along with my younger brother. She was beyond grateful and even cried at the sight of them. I vividly remember her saying that it was the best gift she has gotten in a while. The addition of bringing my younger brother along to see how small acts of kindness can mean so much to one person made the experience even more memorable," says Eghosa.



Thanks to her extreme dedication and commitment to GlamourGals, Eghosa was the 2011 Glammy Winner. Since her graduation, she has remained a supporter, most recently as a Team Leader at the 8th Annual GLTI.



"I think it is important to stay involved with GlamourGals as an alumna because it's always great to be a part of something important and bigger than you. We think so much, but create so little, so the fact that Glamour Gals recognizes the issue of elder loneliness and is implementing ways to fix it amazes me daily," Eghosa notes.
