Monday, June 24, was a great day on the green for Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce's 34th William J. Short Memorial Classic. This annual tournament among business leaders raises funds that are applied to college scholarships for Worcester High School students. Erland team members Augie Martini, Jake Byrne, Scott Bates, and Dan James took on the challenging 18-hole course and reigned victorious as winners of the 2024 classic, with Jake even achieving the longest drive. We look forward to defending our title at next year’s tournament.

“Despite only representing 3% of all four-year institutions, [HBCUs] graduate 17% of all bachelor’s degrees and 24% of all STEM-related bachelor’s degrees for Black students, enrolling ‘more than twice as many Pell Grant-eligible students as non-HBCUs.’ Charging tuition rates that are on average nearly 30% less than at comparable non-HBCUs, these schools are among the best return on our nation’s post-secondary education investments. However, HBCUs have historically been underfunded and continue to be.” Writing for Diverse: Issues In Higher Education, Thurgood Marshall College Fund president and CEO, Dr. Harry L. Williams, describes how investing in HBCUs can help increase higher education enrollment among Black students: https://lnkd.in/e8-qsAfB

2024 National Business Educator of the Year * 2022 WBEA Outstanding High School Business Educator * 2021 OCEE and 2019 OBEA Teacher of the Year * Accounting/Finance Educator * CTE * College Now Liaison * NGPF Fellow
Hands down the most effective conference for educators of personal finance. Not only has the national team of Laura L. Levine Dan Hebert Joel Chrisler and many more, mastered hosting a comprehensive conference with a teacher-centered focus (it's in their mission!), they are doing incredible work ALL year long to promote why this content is critical to our nation's youth. I have leaned on all three of these individuals at one time or another since discovering their work, and often stated that #JumpStartNEC changed my classroom, not only for me, but for my students. (Mystic Dan) #DanTheMan, Laura, Joel, the entire JumpStart Team...I appreciate you for wanting my classroom to be better in providing high-quality, highly-engaging personal finance resources for ALL of my students. I wish State Departments of Education understood how this work has been comprehensive for many years, not just convenient timing in recent headlines. You understand the data and the importance of doing this correctly. Apply today!!
So Mystic Dan won the Kentucky Derby this weekend! (see what I did there?) Guess who's going to win in Louisville this November? Teachers! Would you consider sponsoring a scholarship for them to attend? https://lnkd.in/e8jePq_Q

Experienced Security and Technology Sales / Customer Success Leader committed to understanding requirements, customizing solutions, and delivering training and support for customer success.
This is what servant leadership looks like in action. What a fabulous role model. Do what you can to help others rise up, it’s not required that you give up your wealth, but perhaps there is something that’s very valuable to you and to others that might be a consideration in sharing with the public in an effort to help others.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar sold his 4 championship rings, 3 MVP Trophies and other memorabilia for $2.8 million with the proceeds going to a youth education program. The hall of famer said, “when it comes to choosing between storing a championship ring or trophy in a room, or providing kids with an opportunity to change their lives, the choice is pretty simple: Sell it all.”
