It's always great to see our YP's step up and lend a helping hand when our community needs it. Last Friday, Christian Leichty and Sara Tibbs helped dedicate their time volunteering at the Grand Island Area Habitat for Humanity, helping make the event a success.

We're grateful to have members who are willing to give back and support organizations doing great work in our community.

Today’s Grand Island Young Professionals Professional Development event, Strengths 101, gave us a chance to better understand what makes each of us unique and how our strengths influence the way we live, work, and interact with others every day. From conversations about teamwork in the workplace to relationships at home, it was a great reminder that everyone brings something valuable to the table.

A huge thank you to Bruning Bank for sponsoring lunch and hosting us for this afternoon's event. We also appreciate Renae Foster and Shannon Frick from Mary Lanning Healthcare - Family Care Center for sharing their expertise and leading such a thoughtful and engaging discussion.
