SLĀ Foundations Presents The Power of Storytelling is a podcast for young professionals to inspire youth through the power of storytelling. If you are interested in sharing your story, including the hardships you had to overcome to achieve success (relevant to expectation), then our long-format podcast may be for you.

We will be taking an earnest, introspective look into your life, digging into your formidable early childhood and adolescence years, finding your way through early adulthood and achieving professional success, and the obstacles you have yet to overcome. The goal of the podcast is to not just inform students of the possibilities, but to provide relatable role models to inspire them to put forth the effort no matter what obstacles may stand in their way.

It’s hard to dream big when you’re not sure what’s out there. That’s why the SLĀ Speaker Series seeks young professionals from a broad range of fields to help students discover the many career paths that are possible for them. It’s important for us to showcase not just diversity of industry and role, but diversity in ethnicity and background. This enables us to inspire and serve as role models to the students. A single speaker has the power to inspire so many!

The speaker's specific objectives are:
1) educate students on corporate career opportunities.
2) inspire through sharing of their own story.
3) provide a professional network via a LinkedIn connection.

Speaking is a 90-minute commitment involving three components: the speaker’s story, a discussion activity and a student survey. Create an Opportunity Zone (OZ) account at https://oz.slafoundation.com/signup and find a local classroom to speak to today!

FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is a program for Grades 9-12.
The FIRST Robotics Competition gives high school students and their adult mentors the opportunity to work and create together to solve a common problem. Under strict rules, limited resources, and an intense six-week time limit, teams of students are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get.

At the FIRST Robotics Competition Events, teams show off what they learned and invented, and compete with their robots! They celebrate their hard work and meet other teams while competing for a spot at the FIRST Robotics Competition Ontario Provincial Championships! It’s a fun way to cap off their season!

As a judge, you will work in small groups to select team award recipients through interaction with teams, review documentation regarding team background information to familiarize judges with teams, and serve as role models for the students.

Time Commitment:
- March 15 - Judge’s training dinner – night before the first day of the event at the venue.
- March 16 and March 17 : 7:30 am - 6:00 pm
- Pre-event training – reading materials supplied by Judge Advisor approximately 2 weeks before event
- Due to the nature of the judging process, this two-day time commitment is essential. The Judge Panel starting time on both competition days is usually finalized at the evening dinner. Most Judge Advisors ask their Judge Panels to be on site and in the room by 7:30 a.m. on both days of the competition and stay until the end of the competition (anytime between 5-7pm)


Skills and Experience:
- FIRST experience not required
- Minimum suggested age: 23 (not be a student, including grad students) (FRC Only)
- Maximum of 4 Judges from one company per event
- Judges cannot judge at an event where their child is competing
- Judges must be separated from their team in an active role ( 3 hours or less per week)
for 3 years AND cannot judge an event where their team is competing even if they are a non active mentor.
- Additional details for FIRST Robotics Competition here and for FIRST LEGO League here.

Saturday, October 12, 2024, will be the 10th Anniversary of Pink Lady Walk's Annual 5K Run/Walk charity event! Pink Lady Walk promotes breast cancer awareness and education, but the primary focus is raising funds to help survivors with unexpected expenses associated with a breast cancer diagnosis. Our mission is simple, to help alleviate some of the financial burdens caused by breast cancer.

For a decade, we have been committed to bringing awareness and educating our community on the importance of screenings and prevention methods, and providing support for breast cancer survivors. According to statistics breast cancer is the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in women. Statistics also show that breast cancer is the leading cause of death among African Americans.

Individuals often struggle to pay for their basic living expenses and the unexpected costs associated with a breast cancer diagnosis. In these trying times, they should solely focus on their recovery and treatment while we help relieve some of their financial stress and worries. Pink Lady Walk’s financial assistance programs aim to help alleviate some of the financial burdens caused by this dreadful disease.

Since 2014, we have raised funds for 18 breast cancer survivors, a child with cancer, Hospice of Limestone County, Alabama, The Southern Cancer Center of Huntsville, Alabama, and the Joy to Life Foundation in Montgomery, Alabama. In addition, we pay accounts at local pharmacies and provide emergency donations to individuals facing economic hardships due to a breast cancer diagnosis.

The Bill Direct program will pay any bill up to $300 for someone facing an economic hardship due to a breast cancer diagnosis. The payment is made directly to the creditor. The Recipient Direct program will make payments to chosen individuals, who have a new or reoccurring breast cancer diagnosis, and to organizations that provide breast cancer services to the community. Each chosen recipient will receive $1500.00 for their unique needs, and the Prescription Direct program will credit $250.00 to patients’ accounts at local pharmacies.

Please join us in celebrating our 10th anniversary and committing to the cause. Whether through event registration, sponsorship, donating, or volunteering your time. Your involvement makes a difference. Together we can make this a memorable event, and make the next 10 years even more impactful. Please visit the website to donate, register, and sponsor!

With heartfelt gratitude,
