Greetings from the Founder
Thanks you for dropping by the site. To all teens, adults and new supporters, I would like to thank you for your loyalty and support thought the years. As an educator and counsellor, I realized that low self-esteem played a big factor in the negative behaviour of many teens. Girls of Destiny began in obedience to the voice of God, to serve the community, and empower teen girls and their families.

She is the Coordinator of The Medical Laboratory Science Program at Centennial College, Ontario, Canada. Before entering full time teaching she worked as a manager and staff trainer in the Medical Laboratory in Toronto.
Pat is an Ordained Minister and is a Certified Pastoral Counselor for 15 years. In 2003 Pat founded Girls of Destiny, mentorship and personal development programs for girls 11 -16 years to empower teen girls with the confidence they need to become strong young women.

As a trained scholarship reviewer for The Millennium Excellence Awards, The Top 20 Under 20 Scholarship and other community scholarships, Pat uses her skills and knowledge to mentor students on the “art of winning scholarships”.
