The Young Ambassadors have been actively engaging in various training sessions, and their most recent event, “Networking with Young Professionals,” was a remarkable success. This session provided a unique opportunity for our young leaders to connect with distinguished professionals and gain valuable insights into their careers and life journeys.
We were honored to have Ruby Mundok, Executive Director of Governor Shapiro’s Advisory Commission on Next Generation Engagement, Wesley Robinson, Press Secretary at the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and Gerald Bright, Assistant Director of Program Development at the Philadelphia Mayor's Office of Clean and Green Initiatives, as our guest speakers. Each of these accomplished individuals shared their experiences, discussed their current roles, and offered guidance on navigating the professional world.
Their stories and advice were not only inspiring but also empowering for our Young Ambassadors, who are eager to make a positive impact in their communities. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Ruby, Wesley, and Gerald for their time and dedication to fostering the next generation of leaders.
As we continue to provide these enriching experiences, we look forward to seeing our Young Ambassadors grow and thrive, equipped with the knowledge and inspiration to shape a better future.
Your donation means everything to us and the communities we serve!
