Greater Des Moines Leadership Institute

Class Projects

Every year GDMLI asks the current CLP class to come up with ways to impact their community. We want them to think big, use their connections and as a team, network with community leaders to create something memorable. The goal is for the class to become the voice and vehicle to develop, implement or push a community project into completion in a short period of time. In 25 years we have never failed.
