Mitchell Thorp Foundation

🌟 Celebrating Leadership, Growth, and Giving Back

We were honored to celebrate the graduation of 20 incredible students from the Mitchell Thorp Foundation Youth Leadership Council Servant Leadership Program!

Each student shared heartfelt reflections on how the program helped shape them, strengthen their confidence, and prepare them to carry out the lessons of servant leadership into their future. Hearing them speak about the impact of the program, and the ways they are committed to leading with compassion, purpose, and service, was truly inspiring.

These young leaders reminded us that hope grows when we invest in the next generation.

A special thank you to Kenny Wood and Beth Thorp-Co-Founder for helping facilitate our Servant Leadership curriculum and for pouring wisdom, encouragement, and leadership into these students throughout their journey.
