Welcome to DG4Life!

DG4Life, Inc. operates as D.R.E.A.M. Girls & Distinguished Gentlemen. We are a non-profit organization designed specifically for male and female teens ages 12 through 18. This program was founded by Josie Martin in 1998 with the purpose of building character and training teenagers on social graces (etiquette), personal development, poise and charm, while valuing their commitment to abstain from sex, maintain a life of purity and chastity until marriage. During the eight-month program, each student participates in classroom activities, community service, social events and mentoring. At the end of the training, qualified participants will receive awards and participate in a formal presentation ceremony. Each student will take a vow of chastity until marriage and receive a token of their commitment to celibacy. In January 2004, the male component of the program, Distinguished Gentlemen, was developed by Ron Martin, Josie’s husband of 32 years. Distinguished Gentlemen offers a similar program with instruction expressly meeting the needs of today’s teenage young men. In 2006, sensing the call to minister to the needs of women, W.I.F.E. was introduced. We are located in Southern California serving Los Angeles and Orange County with chapters soon to open in Atlanta, Georgia; Johannesburg, South Africa and other locations.
