Carolina Trust Federal Credit Union Brand Ambassador Graduates from Leadership Grand Strand

Carolina Trust Brand Ambassador, August, more commonly known to members as Always, August ®, recently graduated from the 42nd Class of Leadership Grand Strand.

Leadership Grand Strand is a 10-month program sponsored by the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce to develop a corps of informed, committed, and qualified individuals capable of providing dynamic leadership for the Grand Strand area.

Each of the LGS 42 class members volunteered at least 75 hours with various local charities, including Habitat for Humanity and New Directions Men’s Shelter in Myrtle Beach.  The class also completed a beautiful mural painting in Nance Plaza – this project received a tremendous amount of media coverage and was very well produced.

August documented her time in the Leadership Grand Strand program on her Instagram account, @successinthebag. There, you can find pictures of her volunteering and serving the grand strand area.

“We are so proud of August’s participation and graduation from Leadership Grand Strand,” said Jessica Wilson, Chief Development Officer. “At Carolina Trust, we define leadership as setting an example for those around you. Consistently doing the right thing is the hallmark of leadership. August is the example of our next generation of leaders, leading by example; giving to others, and paving the way by showcasing creditunionlife®”
