8/28/14 - Grant money will help facilitate the community projects of Leadership Livingston and its youth program in the coming months. The Leadership Livingston program has been around for more than two decades, helping high-profile residents improve their leadership skills, as well as learn about the programs, services, and major players in the Livingston County area while meeting other influential individuals. Leadership Livingston Youth began last year with the goal of providing the same service to local young people. Both programs have their participants engage in a community service project, and in the past these projects were funded by the students themselves or though fundraising efforts. This year, the Community Foundation of Livingston County has provided both programs with $10,000 grants to help fund the projects. The youth program has already begun, but there is still time to sign up for the adult program. The cost is $800 per person, which includes a day-long meeting every month from September to May, supplies, food, and transportation for off-site projects. Discounts are available for people from nonprofit organizations. For more information, follow the link below. (TD)
