Fuquay-Varina, NC - Gingerbread LittleVersity, a family-owned childcare facility that attends to children from infancy to 12 years of age, will hold a food drive March 3rd through March 7th. Gingerbread LittleVersity students will compete to see which classroom can collect the most items for the food drive. Everyone in the community is encouraged to stop by any of the three Gingerbread LittleVersity locations to donate food items. All donations will benefit the Fuquay-Varina Food Pantry, providing those who are less fortunate with nourishment throughout the year.
"Holding this food drive gives students the opportunity to give something back to the community," says Kelli Ketner, co-owner of Gingerbread LittleVersity. "It teaches the children that helping others in the community can be both a fun and rewarding experience. Also, the friendly competition among the classrooms seems to really get all of the students fired up about the food drive. "
To drop off any canned or non-perishable food, please drop by Gingerbread LittleVersity's three Fuquay-Varina locations; 211 Railroad Street, 2204 North Main Street, or 1521 North Main Street.

On My Honor, I Will
Aug. 29, 2010 - (By: Gary Tomlinson) "Learning from the school of hard knocks can be very informing, but often the tuition is too high! We should learn from other people's experiences." The purpose of this column is to share great business wisdom from the experiences of authors like Jim Collins, Michael Gerber, Gary Harpst, Michael LeBoeuf, Ron Willingham, Randy Pennington and others. Because when you combine great business education with your own business experiences the outcome you'll receive is far greater than the sum of its parts.
The wisdom of Randy Pennington's new book; "On My Honor, I Will; The Journey to Integrity-Driven Leadership" has been chosen to share with you this week. The seed for this book began with five words: "He's a REAL BOY SCOUT." Those words were spoken to Randy Pennington by his client who used them to describe his boss. They were not meant as a compliment. His client's contention that honor and integrity are not consistent with long-term success concerned Randy then and continues to do so today. It was the catalyst that caused him to write this book.
Unfortunately his client's belief is shared by many others today. More »
