The Christian County CEO Class of 2016 donated $841.30 to the Christian County Relay for Life last week. The donation was made possible by the CEO for Life Dinner that was held on January 30. Fifteen percent of the dinner proceeds were donated. Lisa Sims accepted the donation on behalf of Relay for Life. Dee Krueger, Co-Chair of the Christian County CEO Program, told Regional Radio News the students decided to donate to Relay for Life, because of Taylorville native and founder of CEO, Craig Lindvahl, who is battling cancer.
Krueger says this is an important lesson for the students to give back to the community.
Krueger stated the students have already started working on their personal business as they are on different stages, as some are ready to go while others are tweaking their plans.
The Trade Show will be held on May 19 at Lincoln Land Community College in Taylorville from 6-7:30 p.m. More information can be found by going to christiancountyceo.com.
