About Transforming Lives Academy
Transforming Lives Academy was founded in October of 2011. The Founder/President Gloria Andrews had a strong vision to help youth in the Bolingbrook Community. After working as a certified educator, she realized that students were not advancing with their education, communities were more and more becoming disadvantaged becomes of lack of resources, motivation, and inspiration to be successful despite any obstacles in their way. Gloria new with tutoring students could increase academically, mentoring and coaching could lead to women and youth to aspire to be successful by setting goals and having a successful individual coach them along the way, and those women of tomorrow are the girls today that need empowering workshops, connection, and a platform to grow. Our supporters and volunteers help families. The organization obtained its 501(c)3 status and launched in Bolingbrook, IL.
