A Personal Note from
Melissa DeLeon-Milligan
I am a mother of two girls, Angelina, 11 and Aviana, 9 and wife to my loving husband Aaron Chad who is a deeply rooted Ramapough Lennape Native of Ringwood, NJ where his family is traced back for centuries and who helps balance my life into what is essential, family.
My passion is to help communities. Throughout the years I have collaborated with the Episcopal Diocese of Newark, The NJ Department of Children and Family Services, NYU School of Environmental Medicine and Ramapo College School of Nursing to bring Wellness, Children, and Health programs to underserved communities and from whom I have received recognition and awards for my efforts. My Entrepreneurial spirit has brought me to this juncture of my life and I look forward to combining my passion for community, travel, and GWL into a flourishing business in the place I proudly call home.
