Monique is founder/ceo of gimme mo:

GimmeMo’ is a 501c3 non profit that exists to empower and inspire young people. 
Founded in 2010, our multi-platform community has facilitated dynamic conversations in 24 countries exploring issues that young people face. This multi-platform community is home to the GimmeMo’ show, an online talk show, created and executive produced by actress Monique Coleman, dedicated to empowering today’s youth. Each episode features a compelling topic, such as teen homelessness, obesity, becoming environmentally conscious, body image, sex, drugs, and many more issues highly relevant to today’s youth. GimmeMo’ seeks to create an environment where teens feel safe talking about real issues, bringing awareness to organizations that are serving teens, and conducting celebrity interviews to spotlight Hollywood’s commitment to giving back. GimmeMo’ is produced on the Web to meet young people where they live and provide them with inspiration, resources and positive information. We are dedicated to being a source that young people can rely on to help them navigate the toughest issues of adolescence. 

A Note from our Founder: “Having traveled across America and to 24 counties as the first-ever UN Youth Champion, I’m inspired by the desire of young people everywhere to make the world a better place. At GimmeMo’, our goal is to build a global community of enlightened young people — those who wish to be the change they wish to see in the world, to borrow a phrase from Ghandi — and to raise awareness surrounding some of the biggest challenges that Millennials face both in the U.S. and around the world.” 

Xoxo, 

Monique Coleman
