Teresa Valley is a passionate community leader and founder of Girls Giving Back (GGB), a nonprofit she launched in 2009 alongside her 9-year-old daughter, Taylor. What began as a simple desire to bring friends and youth together for community outreach quickly evolved into a powerful movement addressing urgent needs in local shelters. Under Teresa’s leadership, GGB has transformed over 200 transitional shelter spaces and non- profit offices, providing not just basic necessities, but uplifting, hope-filled environments through hands-on renovations and heartfelt volunteerism.

Inspired by the courage of those facing personal crises, Teresa expanded her mission in 2019 with the launch of Be Kind 5, a program designed to foster personal growth and resilience through five pillars of kindness (Mental Health, Giving Back, Earth Service, Physical Health and Financial Literacy) check it out at www.bekind5.org.

Now in her 16th year in the nonprofit sector, Teresa offers coaching designed to help nonprofits, small business owners, and women with big hearts and bold ideas unlock their purpose and turn it into real, sustainable impact.
