Today, we extend our utmost gratitude to Erica Rodriguez Kight, Ph.D., lecturer in journalism, radio-television, and Hispanic media at the UCF Nicholson School of Communication and Media Dr. Kight's workshop on Professionalism in Communication specifically highlighted the importance of effective email writing to professors in college. Following the workshop, our students had the opportunity to practice by composing their own emails to professors. Don’t take this training for granted—it's harder than it looks when you're used to writing in abbreviations with no greetings or salutations. At PALS, we are proud that our students are empowered through #LeadershipDevelopment, #CollegePreparation, and other critical self-growth techniques. We are immensely thankful for Dr. Kight’s unwavering dedication to PALS and her significant contribution to our program's success! 💪💛 #NVEEE #PALS2024 #PALSatUCF #PALS #UCF#PublicSpeaking

Volunteer Spotlight: Julissa R. Today, we're shining a spotlight on Julissa Rivera, Community Investment Associate at The Miami Foundation wand a true champion for change. Julissa recently volunteered as a speaker at our April monthly PALP meeting for youth leaders, leaving a lasting impression on all who attended. Julissa's passion for community investment and youth advocacy is truly inspiring. She encouraged our young leaders to identify causes they are passionate about, igniting a fire within them to make a difference. Julissa's own dedication to supporting the veteran community and youth shines through in her advocacy and volunteer work. But Julissa's impact doesn't stop there. She not only talks the talk but walks the walk by volunteering in the very communities that helped shape her. Her commitment to giving back is unparalleled, and she goes above and beyond to make a positive impact wherever she goes. One of the most remarkable things about Julissa is her willingness to offer guidance and support to our youth. She generously offered to take them to volunteer at places they are passionate about, sparking excitement and enthusiasm among our young leaders. Thank you, Julissa, for being a beacon of hope, a voice for change, and a true inspiration to us all. Your passion, dedication, and advocacy are making the world a better place, one act of kindness at a time. #VolunteerSpotlight #YouthAdvocate #CommunityChampion #InspiringLeadership #Gratitude #NVEEE #NationalVolunteerWeek #VolunteerWeek #VolunteerAppreciation #ServeWithPurpose #MakeADifference #GiveBack #CommunityService #VolunteerSpirit #SpreadKindness #Volunteerism #GratitudeForVolunteers
