This #GivingTuesday, we invite you to honor the remarkable legacy of Phil Maynard by making a gift to the Phil Maynard Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Phil Maynard, a Leadership Akron Life Trustee, dedicated his life to inspiring, strengthening, and empowering leaders across Greater Akron. As a mentor, visionary, and servant leader, he co-founded the NEXT Program, shaped countless Signature classes, and helped establish our endowment fund.

This scholarship fund ensures that financial barriers never prevent a deserving leader from participating in Leadership Akron programs. Your generous donation will directly support tuition assistance for leaders who are ready to make a lasting impact on our community.

Phil once said, “Given the right leader, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished.”

With your generosity, we can unlock the potential of leaders who will continue his mission to create a stronger, more connected Greater Akron.

With your #GivingTuesday gift you can:

• Empower Leaders: Provide program tuition for leaders with financial need.

• Strengthen Akron: Help foster a more inclusive, diverse, and impactful leadership pipeline.

• Honor Phil’s Legacy: Continue the work of a leader whose generosity and vision transformed lives.

Our goal is to raise $5,000 between now and #GivingTuesday. Every dollar gets us closer to ensuring that Leadership Akron remains accessible to all.

Join us in making a difference!
