ABLE Volunteers,

            Just wanted to thank everyone who participated in Saturdays Painting Event. ABLE presented a tremendous effort at Lincoln Elementary School and positively impacted the lives of countless school children! I was so impressed with everyone’s aptitude and willingness to take personal time in order to focus on a community improvement project. It is fantastic to see individuals within ABLE demonstrate their capabilities and distinguish this powerful representative force within our University. You have all truly brought a strong sense of pride to our business organization.
