ActNOW LA Conference 2021
Both speakers were keen subject matter experts; shared technical information in a very understandable manner that a layman could easily understand. The third speaker's presentation was both deeply informative and entertaining - very well presented. The vendor's anti-smoking and list of resources information was beneficial. Interim participatory activities were engaging, fun, and educational - kept my/our attention. The moderator did a masterful job MCing the event. Overall, the conference was very well organized and executed by a well-disciplined body of TGF personnel and stakeholders. Excellent job Ernesta!

Ernesta ranks among the most dedicated…
Of all the colleagues that I have worked with in business and the non-profit sector/ NGO sector, Ernesta ranks among the most dedicated and the most results-oriented. I have watched her grow The G.R.E.E.N Foundation from concept to reality. Coupling her business acumen, gained through years of experience as a successful entrepreneur, with her determination to impact positively on the lives of African-Americans at- risk for breast cancer has led to measurable reductions in the numbers of persons seeking early intervention. She is a 'go to' person for other like-minded start-up nonprofit organizations seeking consultative guidance.
