Members of Giving Ourselves Amazing Lives have been collecting donations for the Weirton Community Bread Basket's Holiday Dinner Drive. Coach Robin Cattrell and members of the Wednesday group donated $615 to Tara Sheperd. This amount will cover 41 meals. GOAL is a health-and-wellness organization which offers education, inspiration and motivation. The group was formulated when WeightWatchers discontinued its live meetings in the Ohio Valley. Members wanted to continue to meet and support one another, so they began using the Millsop Community Center three days a week in order to continue their journey together. Officials explained the center made meeting affordable, resulting in members being able to donate to a charity when they didn't lose weight. Most members donate money to a charity when they lose weight, officials noted. GOAL contributed to the Weirton Community Bread Basket as its charity of choice. The meetings began April 5. To date, they have given $1,372, for which those from the nonprofit expressed their gratitude and appreciation. GOAL is open to the public and meets Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at the community center.
