National Society of Leadership and Success

As Secretary, I created the LEAP Points system. LEAP is an acronym for Leaders Earning Awesome Prizes and is a points system to get members involved in more ways. Using an excel spreadsheet, I tracked points for over 1,000 members for many different activities. As VP for Chapter Events, I planned social events for members. One of my favorite events was Relay for Life. We organized a fundraising event called Karaoke for a Cure and activities for SVSU's event. We ended up raising nearly $600.
