This year marks a decade of inspiring conversations, remarkable leaders and community connections through our Pay It Forward Luncheon Series — and we are pulling out all the stops.

Join us for a special anniversary edition featuring Bettye L. Smith, CEO of Payroll People Business Services, Inc. With a story rooted in resilience, determination and vision, Smith will share her personal and professional journey — from challenges to triumphs — offering students and community members alike powerful insight on growth leadership, and giving back. Her message is simple yet profound: every day holds something new, and with the right mindset, everything is possible. Don't miss this chance to be inspired and empowered to shape your own future.
