CLDP @ BERGEN students thank our sponsors!

CLDP@Bergen logoWe’re fundraising to cover the cost of food served at the five College Leadership Develop Program (CLDP) workshops we just completed … and hopefully, we’ll receive a few thousand more dollars to get to the USHLI National Conference in Chicago. Participants in the inaugural CLDP at Bergen Community College are invited as USHLI’s guests!

The CLDP @ BERGEN students and The Wei Team which organized the CLDP @ BERGEN workshop series thank our awesome sponsors for helping us enjoy great food during our sessions. We also thank our advisors Gene Calderón and Johanna Heule and the beautiful speakers who brought words of enlightenment, hope and knowledge to this project and all of its participants.

We hope you’ll spread the word about how committed this group’s members are to advancing our families and communities through knowledge, networking and financial strength we acquire in the course of completing our educations and developing our own careers. We need to raise $10,000 to cover getting 25 people to Chicago in mid-February. Please help us if you can – contact information below.

A big thank you to our sponsors!
