It’s not often that we report on meetings. But Tuesday’s was full of potential, hope and tons of enthusiasm.

That’s because it was a meeting with twenty-three students from the Youth Learning Center. The YLC “provides unique academic and enrichment experiences for youth from underserved communities to inspire lifelong learning, social responsibility and moral leadership.”

Specifically, these high school freshmen and sophomores are participating in a five-week course on entrepreneurship. As a supplement to their curriculum, they came to learn about what an advertising agency does and to practice their skills as budding entrepreneurs.

But the early indications around the office show that the agency benefitted just as greatly. If not more.

It was a chance to give back. A chance to learn about a great organization. And an overall fantastic meeting.
