Voyage Raleigh – Meet Darlena Moore
“I decided that I needed to do more than just mentor and volunteer. I started cooking granola out of my home to sell, with 100% of proceeds going to a scholarship named in honor of the Gilberts.”

“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give,” famous words once spoken by Winston Churchill. And it’s a quote that completely embodies the heart and spirit of Darlena Moore, President of the Gilbert Scholarship, Inc.
We had an amazing speaker this evening! Darlena Moore (aka “Mountain Girl”) shared her own personal story and how that has become a 501c3 non-profit organization to provide scholarships for foster students.
