I find tremendous value and satisfaction in speaking with or coaching (mentoring) the CHC students and young alumni.  I enjoy working to further develop and grow empowerment in these young men. The CHC and Lasallian mission of educating the young to be leaders in the community complements my commitment to mentoring young people.   I am always happy to meet with the CHC students and young alumni and answer any questions they may have or provide deeper insight or thought leadership where I can.
 
I am continuously impressed by the students, their inquisitive nature and fearless attitudes in wanting to learn and understand everything they can regarding ‘real world’ experiences.  Whether in regard to business, community, technology, volunteerism, process, etc. - it doesn’t matter. They have persistence and interest in exploring and learning about all things.  I find this to be wonderful testimony to the strength in the CHC course curriculums, the teachers, the administrators, the CHC community and the various clubs available to them at CHC.
 
This compelled me to launch the Red C Challenge (www.CalvertHall.com/RedCChallenge) seven years ago to bring business and entrepreneurial challenges, in a non-curriculum setting, to the CHC community and students who have a shared interest and desire to learn, grow and enhance many of the skillsets needed beyond their formal educations.  The Red C program focuses on providing leadership tools and resources through team challenges by leveraging the talents of many CHC alumni.  The Challenge promotes innovative thought leadership, hard and soft skillset development, creativity, confidence and self-esteem. 
 
My testimony of impact is measured on the growth and successes of all of those who have participated in the Red C Challenge over the years.  They are all winners and will continue to gain infinite rewards from their finite focus.
