2011 leadership luncheon

Thank you to everyone who supported our 2011 Summer Search San Francisco Leadership Luncheon! It was a truly inspirational afternoon and an incredible success as we raised over $560,000 to support our students around the Bay Area.

Relive the magic! Videos of our event speakers are now posted online:

• Jesus, a senior at Leadership Public High School in San Francisco, reflects on his “hero’s journey” and how Summer Search helped him “shoot for the moon”.

• Dung Le ‘01, tells her story of breaking free from the “barnacle mentality” and discovering the risks and rewards of personal transformation.

• Summer Search’s new CEO, Amy Saxton, shares why she chose Summer Search and explains the growing need for this program in the Bay Area.

• Cazzie Brown ‘00, D’Genaro Pulido ‘07, Tee ‘11, and Akil Gibbs ’02 come together in the closing performance to show the many ways Summer Search students and alumni are creating positive change in the world around them.
