This is Part 2 of our two-part conversation with Todd Greenwood.
In this episode, we explore the Youth Leadership Program (YLP) in our community—a remarkable initiative started by Todd Greenwood and a group of passionate Toastmasters more than two decades ago.

What began as a small effort has grown into a thriving program that serves 300+ school-age children each year from January through March, supported by an incredible team of 100+ volunteers.
Many members of our club have contributed as mentors and volunteers in the program over the years.

This episode is a wonderful reminder that the Toastmasters mission extends far beyond our club meetings. Each of us has the power to make a meaningful impact by helping build confidence, communication, and leadership in those around us.

Enjoy the episode!
