GYLA Spring Break Program 2014 Invitations
Yeqing Victor Li
Dear Friend,
Last year’s Spring Break DC Leadership Program was the best yet. Both the participants and the professionals we engaged have requested that we organize this program again. We did.
You are invited to the 2014 DC Spring Break Leadership Program March 19-21. Through this unique program, we engage the US Congress, World Bank, the State Department, Supreme Court and also the White House, Embassies and Think Tanks as available. You will have first-hand experience relating to careers in politics, diplomacy, and international development. As an alumnus, you will become part of a global network of young leaders who are making a difference in this world.
In recognition of being a part of the GYLA network,
you have been pre-approved for the program with a $200 scholarship. However,
seats are limited, so apply soon if you are interested. Please make sure to put
"200" in the
"Priority Code" field on the application form so that the staff knows
your status. Note that this code is not transferable.
Please check the website, www.gyla.org for
more information. Feel free to forward the following announcement through
your networks and ask them to put "201" instead of "200".
If you have any questions please call Magali at 301.909.8182 or info@gyla.org.
See you in Washington!
All the Best,
Victor Li
