Be Strong is an organization that is not only trying to bring awareness to the severity of bullying in our society, but to actually take it one step further and empower the kids to make a difference, themselves. There are some really great anti-bullying awareness programs out there, but Be Strong is actually holding the kids accountable to stand up and be the change that they want to see in society, which we feel is SO important.

To start, allow me to introduce myself; my name is Dominique Gargano, Director of Programs and Communications for Global Food Solutions. I grew up a theater geek; absolutely love musical theater, acting, singing, dancing, really just entertaining people in any way, shape or form. An interesting little tidbit that most people don't know; Mike (CEO), Elena (Director of Nutrition), and I all grew up in the same town. To know that our food is keeping children well-fed and nourished is an awesome feeling, and I know that I speak for all of us here at Global when I say that.
