For many people, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We are grateful to have so many business leaders that we count as friends. They are willing to give their personal time to this project, because they believe in our mission.

We are thrilled to have such an impressive group of leaders involved in our auction. Their involvement in Lunch With A Leader will draw attention to the national dropout issue that is quickly becoming an epidemic.

It is very gratifying to see that the same people who report the most dynamic and significant news of the day recognize dropout prevention as an important issue. We are thrilled to have these great journalists supporting our Lunch With A Leader(TM) online celebrity auction.

What I want to do is, I want business leaders, small business, employers, to come together, ... A moderate (increase). A reasonable one that everybody can handle.

This is our opportunity as leaders of the community to assist these residents.

We develop and grow leaders. P&G people are given the opportunity - the assignments, experiences, and coaching - to become the strongest leaders they can be.
