Glow Sisters are “Getting Results” by Volunteering, Donating and Hosting Virtual Food Drives
Cassie and Sabrina Glow are two teenagers who use their voices to help fight food insecurity. They stand out because they don’t complete one volunteer activity and move on. They’ve become committed to the cause and look for ways to support their neighbors facing hunger.
The teen voice actors started by donating a portion of their earnings from Glow Girls Kid Voiceover to Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida.

“The price of eggs is what?!”
Everyone in the vicinity turned to see a woman holding her hands in disbelief. She was staring at the shelf of eggs.
