On Friday, May 22nd, I was invited to speak to teens of the
Boys & Girls Clubs of Harford County during their "End of the Academic Year" Celebration Party! The teens enjoyed the evening taking a dip in the olympic size pool at the Aberdeen Swim Club pool and consuming delicious food donated by sponsor Taco Bell!

I had the opportunity to speak to the youth about my platform #FinancialSmarts, the importance of being successful in school and the importance of graduating. The Taco Bell Foundation for Teens is a proud sponsor of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and catered the meal for the pool party. The foundation is encouraging youth to make a pledge to "
Make the Promise to Graduate!"

Thank you Taco Bell! |
At the end of the night, I was ecstatic to judge a dance-off and award one lucky young man a $25 VISA Gift Card sponsored by APG Federal Credit Union. Thank you again to the Club Director, Ms. T (Otelia Brannigan) for the invitation.
Paying it forward,
