An Update On The 2018 People's Liberty Haile Fellowships

People’s Liberty Haile Fellowships provide a year-long civic sabbatical and a $100,000 award for two Greater Cincinnati residents to implement a project that will improve life in our community.

This year, a Haile Fellowship was awarded to Elisa Hoffman, who created School Board School to provide training and support for individuals considering running for and serving on area school boards.

Nicole Armstrong, this year's other Haile Fellow, founded Queen City Certified to recognize, promote and support organizations that are committed to fostering gender equity in the workplace.

Elisa Hoffman and Nicole Armstrong join Cincinnati Edition for an update on their projects. They are joined by the Vice President and Senior Program Manager with the Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr./U.S. Bank Foundation and CEO of People's Liberty, Eric Avner.

School Board School will hold an Impact Fair open to the public on Thursday, January 17, 2019 from 6-7 p.m.

Tune in to Cincinnati Edition Dec. 19 starting at 1 p.m. to hear this segment.
