Testimonials

Danielle T. - 2011-2012 Young Leaders Participant
“I definitely learned, have learned and am still learning how to live a healthier life, by eating better and exercising more. I’ve also learned how to help my friends who I’ve seen eat unhealthy foods. I play softball so I know how to work out, but I never really knew how to say to them, 'hey, you should work out too.' Young Leaders has helped me help other people.” Dani T.
