Congratulations to our 40th Leadership Waco Class! 🎉 This week, we hosted a luncheon to celebrate the graduates. During the lunch, class representative Iyan Laylor reflected on his time in the program and the impact it's had on his life and the community. He discussed the class project, which raised $20,000 to build a basketball court and playground at Isaiah 117 House.
