GNL’s President J R Philp expressed thanks to the Community Foundation of Collier County Trustees Emeriti for recognizing the efforts Greater Naples Leadership members have put forth for the continued improvement of life in southwest Florida, stating, “Over the years, our talented, dedicated members have volunteered hundreds of hours in order to make a difference, and we look forward to another great year of successfully serving the community!” GNL Immediate Past President Jean Foster adds, “GNL's high visibility within Greater Naples as the ‘go-to’ organization for fulfilling the leadership and volunteer needs of local nonprofit and civic organizations is the result of the collective efforts of the more than 875 women and men who have graduated from our Masters Class program since 1999. We are proud of the many and diverse roles that GNL members have played and continue to play to enrich and improve community life. It is an honor for GNL to be recognized by this prestigious award!” For more information about Greater Naples Leadership, please email GNL Communications Chair Ricki Baker, call 239.300.7055 or visit www.gnlwebsite.org.
