Chick-fil-A Leader Academy: The Big Thank You
Leadership comes in many forms, and for PCA, one program that is helping create future leaders is the Chick-fil-A Leader Academy, a group of 15 students whose goal focuses on leadership insights: vision and values, servant leadership, teamwork, communication, innovation, and impact.
Chick-fil-A Leader Academy members kicked off the year by adding some joy into the lives of our community's first responders by way of the "Big Thank You" project.
When asked what exactly a "Big Thank You" entailed, member SarahAnne Horne explained, "The Big Thank You project is a way to thank you to the first responders. Chick-fil-A Leader Academy members are sending thank you notes to first responders we know in the community or relatives thanking them for their amazing leadership and courage they show every day."
Students gathered at lunch to come up with a plan and went home to construct and mail their cards. They also wanted to make sure that National First Responders Day on October 28 was not forgotten. The group came together and made a thank you sign, placing it on the front lawn of the Fire Station close to PCA.
It is clear from these servant-hearted students that there is hope for the future leaders of tomorrow.
