2022 LEAD21 Alumni Association Annual Meeting Agenda – Held March 9-10, 2022

LEAD21 Association Dues
Alumni Association Dues: For a couple of years, your alumni Board of Directors has worked to obtain 501c6 status due to the generosity of the LEAD21 Board of Directors. The hope is that in-person alumni annual meetings can be held in future years and having these membership dues will assist in funding the annual meeting and allow for financial contribution to impactful speakers while the Board continues to promote the growth of the LEAD21 Alumni Association.
