Leadership Westerville: Class of 2021 creates online resource guide for older adults
ThisWeek group
An online directory of services for Westerville senior citizens is now available, thanks to the 2021 Leadership Westerville class.
When the Leadership Westerville board and the class of 2021 decided to cancel Service Day, a day of service focused on helping seniors in the community, they identified two areas of need they could address as small-group projects to still assist senior citizens, said Matt Lofy, LW executive director.
The first project that was launched in February was Westerville Snow Patrol, pairing older residents and residents with disabilities with nearby neighbors who volunteer to assist them with snow removal.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (March 12, 2021) As chairwoman of the board for the Kentucky Distillers’ Association, Jessica Pendergrass said 2020 was a year that required action and change, not just words, when it came to diversity, equity and inclusion. She is only the third woman chair of the board in its 140 years.
Pendergrass will co-chair a panel discussion March 12 during the James B. Beam Institute for Kentucky Spirits virtual Bourbon Industry Conference. Panelists will discuss their experiences in their own career paths and field questions from conference attendees.
“Women in leadership are often questioned and held to a different standard than men. Our skillset is analyzed, our intentions are questioned, our communication style is scrutinized, and we are asked to seek a second opinion from men when advising on a topic,” said Pendergrass, general counsel and chief compliance
