Leadership Tomorrow’s Volunteer Day

Date:

The 23rd Leadership Tomorrow class met on December 10th to complete one of its three volunteer projects for the 2014-2015 program year. Each year one session is dedicated to a full day of volunteer work at a non-profit in our community. This year all 30 class members spent the day assisting with various painting projects to help maintain the cheerful environment of several buildings on campus of the Lufkin State Supported Living Center.

The day was coordinated by Lynn Hopper, Community Relations Director, of the Lufkin State Supported Living Center and Bonnie Dowdy, Leadership Tomorrow Chairman. The Leadership Tomorrow program is made possible through student sponsorships by businesses and parents. A special thank you extended to CMC Recycling, the Presenting Sponsor for 2014-2015, to Hudson ISD for providing transportation for the session, and to the Lufkin State Supported Living Center for providing lunch.

Leadership Tomorrow consists of 30 high school juniors from all of the Angelina County school districts. The program was designed for high school and home school juniors in Angelina County and mirrors the Leadership Lufkin program. Students in the program have the opportunity to learn about Angelina County first hand, to explore possible career opportunities that exist in this area, and give back to the community through three volunteer service projects.
