Gilliard and Co. - Helping foster kids exiting the foster care system

from Savannah Spotlight · host Live Like Locals

In the debut episode of Savannah Spotlight, host Renee LaSalle sits down with Whitney Gilliard, founder of Gilliard & Co., a Savannah-based nonprofit transforming the lives of young adults aging out of the foster care system.  Sponsored by The Horne Law Firm Whitney shares her deeply personal journey through foster care and how it inspired her to create a safe, supportive home for youth ages 18 to 21 who often fall through the cracks once they turn 18. This powerful conversation sheds light on an often-overlooked population and the real impact community support can make. You’ll also learn how Gilliard & Co. is partnering with Live Like Locals during the Spring Fling at Tom Triplett Park, where they’ll host the Blue Ribbon Walk to raise awareness and funds for foster youth across Georgia. This episode is inspiring, eye-opening, and a reminder that when a community shows up, lives can truly change. Tune in, share the story, and find out how you can be part of the mission. https://livelikelocals.tv/savannah-spotlight-episode-1-shining-a-light-on-gilliard-co/
