AMOCO Federal Credit Union Announces Five-Year Commitment to Gilmore Elementary’s Leader in Me Program

AMOCO Federal Credit Union is proud to announce a five-year sponsorship commitment to support the Leader in Me program at Gilmore Elementary, reinforcing its dedication to empowering students and investing in the future of the communities it serves.

Leader in Me is a leadership development program created by FranklinCovey and offered to schools at PK-12 grade levels. It is founded on the belief that every child has leadership potential. The program equips students with leadership and life skills through character development, goal setting, personal responsibility, communication, collaboration, and creative problem-solving.

Through this partnership, AMOCO aims to help Gilmore Elementary students build the confidence and independence needed to step outside their comfort zones, explore their creativity and ingenuity, and develop the skills necessary to lead in their schools, families, and communities.

“Programs like Leader in Me are an investment in the future of our community. The students developing leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills today will one day become our employees, business owners, entrepreneurs, and community leaders,” said Gail Figueroa, AMOCO Chief Administration Officer. “We are proud to partner with Gilmore Elementary and support a program that helps prepare the next generation for success both in the workplace and in life.”

AMOCO’s five-year investment will help Gilmore Elementary continue building a culture where students are encouraged to take initiative, set goals, work collaboratively, and recognize their ability to make a positive difference in the world around them.

As a community-focused financial cooperative, AMOCO remains committed to supporting educational initiatives that help individuals reach their full potential and strengthen the communities it serves.
