BOCA RATON, FL – August 6, 2024 – Grom Social Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: GROM), the company that helped usher in safe social media exclusively for kids, last night cheered its original brand ambassador – Caroline Marks – on her path to the medal stand as she secured the gold medal in women's surfing for Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics surfing venue in French Polynesia's Teahupo'o, Tahiti. Caroline, whose brother, Zach, first conceived the idea for Grom Social when he was just 12, was the target of cyberbullying in middle school, and her experience helped spotlight the need for safe social media for kids. Today, the company will unveil a newly overhauled app with enhanced safety features in the Apple Store on IOS, with an Android version to follow at a later date.

Since its inception in 2012, first as a website, Grom has remained steadfastly committed to giving kids under 13 a social media experience just for them and free of inappropriate content, cyberbullying and target marketing. Today, Caroline serves as a company brand ambassador for Grom as her brother, Zach, is the app's founder and Chief Content Officer. Their father, Darren Marks, is CEO of Grom Social Enterprises, Inc., which has expanded its offerings through a portfolio of services as a leading provider of family-friendly entertainment, media, and technology solutions.

"From her early days of surfing the web to last night, where she rode a wave of support, Caroline never gave up her dream of being the best, no matter how many waves knocked her down," said Zach Marks. "Time and again, she got back on her board and winning the gold medal at the 2024 Olympics makes all of us at Grom Social feel incredibly proud. Congratulations to my kid sister, and our gold medalist!"

Darren Marks added, "As a father, I couldn't feel prouder than to see my daughter achieve her goal of winning a gold medal one day and seeing my son's vision of a new groundbreaking version of the Grom Social app happen within 24 hours of each other! My wife, Sarah, and I join parents everywhere as we encourage our kids, help keep them safe and shape a new generation of inspirational adults."
