Leadership Circle
Be a Leader...

Tony Alexander
"In 1986, Woody Hayes gave the commencement speech at The Ohio State University. In that speech, Hayes, citing Ralph Waldo Emerson, spoke of the notion of paying it forward, stating 'You can pay back only seldom. But, you can always pay forward, and you must pay line for line, deed for deed, and cent for cent.' I have benefited greatly from the kindness and generosity of others, and United Way allows me the opportunity to it pay forward for the benefit of someone else."
