Duke Energy’s Business Women’s Network and Toyota Motor Manufacturing’s Women’s Leadership Forum were recognized for their contribution at Northern Kentucky Community Action Commission's 2008 Annual Meeting. They shared the Head Start Volunteer of the Year award. After the ceremony, Kimberly Glenn of Duke Energy commented that "the project helped us more than it did Head Start. We truly enjoyed the experience." |
