Since 2021, the Leadership Connection has been serving its mission to connect today’s leaders with the next generation to build a stronger community. Leadership Connection provides a forum for local high school students to engage with distinguished professionals from both the private and public sectors, allowing students to build professional and personal leadership skills while providing members of our community the opportunity to positively impact the next generation.
The Rotary Club of Carmel is proud to partner with distinguished members of our community to lead this workshop and service activity that brings students from both Carmel and Indianapolis together as they explore their futures and learn how they can impact their communities. Students who attend can also apply for the Portee-Leadership Connection scholarship, which awards funds to a college or trade school of their choice and a laptop computer.
We are proud of the impact Leadership Connection is making in our communities and invite you to join us on this mission to inspire and engage.
What our Attendees Say
What I enjoyed most during this event was how we got to communicate and connect with other students from different schools. Also, how we got to meet amazing people and got to talk to adults more about what will help our future the best.
