2015-2016 Board Member Testimonials

Serving as the VP of Finance has allowed me to connect with other students in the program and be involved with activities in a way that would not have been possible otherwise. 
                                             - Luis Arias, VP of Finance

Serving as VP of Marketing has provided me with the opportunity to create a unique communications platform that brings together our campuses for value-added events. In addition, the marketing and leadership skills I've gained have already proven invaluable for my career. 
                     - Michelle Gallagher, VP of Marketing

PTMBAA February Toy Drive
The PTMBAA is partnering with part-time student Maurice Nick to collect toys to deliver to 200 families in the Dominican Republic.  Maurice is working with House of Prayer on its second trip to the Dominican Republic.  They have already collected clothing and food for 200 families on the island. 

We will be collecting new and gently used toys at all the campuses in a cohort-based competition-style drive. We will announce the winning cohort at Monte Carlo Night and award them with an additional $150 for their spring semester bank account.  

Hurry -- the toy drive ends this Saturday, February 20!
