"Being named the 2004 Kenworthy Leadership Award recipient meant so much to me, because I feel like it was a vote of confidence for all volunteers who are leaders, especially those of us who, though we are not employed, spend countless hours working to improve life for others and are able to make a difference in our community."
-Mary Kay Ross, 2004 Kenworthy Award recipient, Class X

Leadership Springfield offers sponsorship opportunities
Leadership Springfield has produced almost 600 graduates during its first 20 years of existence in this community. The graduates of this nine-month program are committed to Leadership Springfield's mission and are actively involved in the community. In fact, it would be a challenge to find any business, government, civic or nonprofit organization in Springfield that does not have at least one Leadership Springfield graduate in a leadership role. In addition, Leadership Springfield Academy provides an opportunity for high school students to interact with community leaders, learn about current community issues, and develop the personal skills needed by our future leaders.
If you believe in building leaders for our community, then consider sponsoring a program day, a two-day fall or spring retreat, or participate in the Leadership golf tournament.
