GirlstrongInc is honored to partner with the National Military Family Association (NMFA), a leading nonprofit dedicated to serving military families through advocacy and programs that address their unique challenges.

Last week, Nicole B. Gebhardt, 2026 National Guard Military Spouse of the Year, joined NMFA in Washington DC for this year’s Operation Advocacy, when NMFA brought together 25 incredible military spouse advocates, to meet with more than 25 congressional offices, sharing their lived experiences and advocating for meaningful quality-of-life improvements for military families.

The new GIRLSTRONG ‘She Serves Too’ Military Spouse collection benefits the NMFA, helps to amplify military spouse voices, and gives back to military families in a meaningful way. For every 'She Serves Too' Military Spouse shirt sold, GIRLSTRONG will donate 50% of the net proceeds to the NMFA.

Love this "Women of Style" feature in The Atlantan Modern Luxury, which includes the glamorous and inspirational Christine Strange, a two-time breast cancer survivor, and survivor advocate who is all about positive mental wellness.

Christine is currently relaunching The Tickled Pink Shooting Club, a bold and healing space that was created for women to build confidence by shooting clay targets, and to support breast cancer survivors and fighters through empowerment.

Christine also works with the amazing nonprofit, Send Me On Vacation, providing wellness retreats to breast cancer survivors. Christine uses her experiences to empower other women, helping them to heal from the emotional trauma of cancer. Christine's unmistakable passion helps survivors know that they are not alone.
