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 29 years we have never failed.
