On May 22nd the NAAAIA Chicago 13th annual Scholarship Luncheon was held at the Union League Club in Chicago to a near capacity crowd and was a huge success. We awarded scholarships to 8 outstanding high school seniors captured in the below photo. Our keynote speaker, Joyce Trimuel, SVP, Chief Diversity Officer, CNA Insurance, had an inspiring message that had the attendees wanting more. Thanks to Joyce for her huge contribution to the success of the luncheon. Denise Powell did an excellent job as our MC and thanks to all our speakers who gave of themselves to make this event memorable and enjoyable. The students who spoke at the luncheon were amazing in what they have accomplished in a short period of time and their poise in front of a large audience of people was noteworthy. As the President of the NAAIA Chicago Chapter, I could not be prouder of our board members, supporters and corporate sponsors for the continued success we enjoy as a chapter. Our theme for the luncheon could be our mantra for the year, and that is “Success Has No Limits”.
