Dear Maria,
 We join the whole community in saluting Leadership Louisville Center board members Joe Pusateri of Elite Homes and Phil McHugh of Fifth Third Bank for their roles in the success of the Extreme Home Makeover project for the deserving Hughes family.
The Leadership Louisville Center itself has been a hub of activity with several program days plus a great networking event at the November 100 Wise Women breakfast forum. Be sure to check out several photo gallery links below.
We extend to all of you, our warmest wishes for the holiday season!
