GLOUCESTER COUNTY, New Jersey (WPVI) -- For this local woman, a journey of self improvement led to a social club for people just like her in the area.
It's known as "South Jersey Girls Who Walk," gathering women with common interests to make new friends and form a network of support.
"I lost my mom a couple of years ago. I was grieving...And I was able to find so many amazing women that come out to these walks. Everybody has a reason that they come out if they want to talk about it," said Founder, Nelly Ozdmr.
"This is a no judgment zone. We've made great friendships...this allows women to come out of their comfort zone and try something new, but not doing it alone," she continued.
