This month marked a new chapter for our community as we officially evolved from The Committee GNO to GNO, Girls Networking Organization. The name changed. The heart of the community did not. Our new name better represents who we are and where we are headed, a growing organization built around women supporting women.

We also launched our brand-new website, designed to make it easier than ever to connect with our community, explore membership, and stay up to date on all things GNO. A special thank you to our Digital Partner, Veronica Gelman of FoxSignal, for bringing our vision to life.

A note from Nicole: July has always held a special place in my heart, but this year felt especially meaningful as I celebrated my birthday month and 50 years of life, growth, gratitude, and so much joy. What started as a vision to bring women together has grown into something far beyond what I ever imagined.
