g.a.b runs WNBA event hosted by Tangerine Bank on November 13, 2022
It was a dream come true for g.a.b to work with the WNBA and showcase our programming that builds confidence in girls! It was equally empowering to watch majority of the g.a.b staff who led the event were once former g.a.b participants. Can you guess which of the six g.a.b coaches were once participants in the picture below?
