About
Global Leadership Connection
The
Global Leadership Connection brings together youth leaders dedicated to
ethical conduct, academic excellence and compassionate service.
Our
Mission is to inspire student leaders to develop spiritually, morally and
socially.
The
challenging leadership seminars connect youth leaders to each other, to
colleges and to adult leaders in the community, in the nation, and on the
globe. We believe that young people are our greatest natural resource and
the positive relationships they make enhance their lives. They are the hope
of our future.
Completing
the Global Leadership Connection application (including a resume and essay
questions), sharing in a personal interview, participating in the
interactive leadership days, and attendance at the Scholarship / Awards
