This month’s SRBA Member Spotlight Program packs a big punch, fueling the school day/night and employing 7%+ students but on a TINY campus - you’ll be blown away by how the leaders of PACE Center for Student Enterprise make it happen.

S/O to Dr. Kathy Winstead, (Lizi is CFO-> GM at ) and (GM at PACE Perk Fit) for giving me a personal tour on the last days of class before holiday - oh and thx for donating to the family banana bread fund!

Guys, you won’t regret learning how students at PACE in Pleasantville, NY lead this program with 5 impressive businesses centered on food service, owning a lot of credit to a faculty founder and champion (Dr. Winstead).

Learn more about this impressive SRBA member in the video, on their website and in this month’s email from the team at SRBA!
