“Dear Board Members,
We’re thrilled to report on the success of sponsoring six of our Eisenhower Youth and Government Club students’ participation in the YMCA Youth and Government event in Oklahoma City. This impactful experience immersed them in governance, fostering critical thinking, public speaking, and civic engagement skills.
Despite a setback due to illness, five of our students were able to attend, thanks to your generous support. They actively participated in various roles, including mock legislature, mock lobbyist, and media coverage. Your investment empowered our youth to become informed, engaged citizens, poised to tackle future challenges with confidence. Thank you for believing in their potential and the betterment of our community.
Sincerely, Eisenhower Youth and Government Club”
