Watch for Membership Survey ... Then Tell Us What You Think
To gain a deeper understanding of our members’ satisfaction
levels and needs, we have developed an online Voice of the Customer
survey. The survey is anonymous and takes 10-15 minutes to
complete. Questions with red stars (*) require a response. Your responses will help ensure
your voice is heard and guide us in our planning. We will distribute the survey via email this Friday, January 10, and ask that you complete it by January 17, 2025. Thank you for cooperation and input.
For those who would prefer to submit a paper copy of the survey, please let me
know.
GRSP Leadership Weekend
Be A GRSP Leadership Weekend Host Family - Feb. 14-16
In the past few weeks, you have heard about the magic of GRSP ...
- Our "perfect" match with Oglethorpe University, who has partnered with us for well over 25 years, providing lower tuitions for many of those years as well as great GRSP students since we started working directly with the university
- Hoa Nguyen who shared the culture of Vietnam and her Buddhist faith, as well as her smile and her plans to become a nurse
- Jackie Cuthbert, with stories of our student weekends, the joy of being a host family, and how we inspire GRSP students with our leadership weekend.
We'd like to invite you to share the magic February 14-16 by hosting students and/or volunteering to be part of the team that makes the weekend happen. More to follow soon but mark your calendars now! And let Jackie know if you'd like to be a weekend host family. We'll share more in the weeks to come!
