Chuck Hanus\u00a0is not only going to help his career, he is going to help the children who belong to Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Florida.<\/p>\n
Hanus attended the\u00a0Celebrate The Children 2012<\/em>\u00a0Dinner & Auction and placed the winning bid for a seat in the 麻豆原创 Executive MBA Program. His bid of $27,000 reserves a space for him, based upon his acceptance into the program. The entire amount of the auction item goes directly to Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Florida.<\/p>\n
He chuckles that it was the most \u201cexpensive dinner\u00a0ever<\/em>\u00a0with my wife,\u201d but understands the long-term benefits he will receive by earning his degree.<\/p>\n
\u201cI reached out to my father who has always encouraged me to do everything I can to further my education, and with his help, was able to place the winning bid. It was one of those opportunities that just could not be passed up. My thought was not only would I get to help a great cause like Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Florida, but I would end up helping myself by achieving my MBA,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is an amazing feeling to think that I will be able to save money completing my education, while youth in Central Florida will have an opportunity to enhance their futures with Boys & Girls Clubs Programs,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
