Invest in CEO
The manner in which the CEO program is funded is critical to its success and sustainability. All funds raised are used exclusively for the Union County CEO. To participate, a 3-year $1,000 per year commitment is required. Business Partner Investors commitments of time and energy are also critical to the program's success. Contributions may be tax deductible, as our organization is a 501(c)(3) not for profit organization.

Host a CEO class
When we are not touring local businesses, we need a place to host the class. During that time, the CEO students and their Facilitator would meet at your site where they would also have guest speakers and guests from the community to attend. Hosting requires a facility with internet access and adequately accommodates up to 35 people.
