Congratulations to our 2023 Youth Leadership Graduates
The Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce Foundation is pleased to announce the graduates from the 2023 Youth Leadership program. A ceremony was held Monday evening at Coastal Alabama Community College in honor of the graduates. Parents and students attended from each of the participating schools.
Alabama House Representative, Matt Simpson, spoke briefly about the success of this graduating class and how he is excited to watch them grow and see them again in the future.
Each year the graduating class works on group projects to learn about issues in our community. This year, two groups were formed. One group presented on the issue of mental health and assistance in local schools. The other group presented a moving video on what hunger means to them in honor of the Prodisee Pantry.
