sponsor panel discussion

Rotary Convention Highlights

Cindee Sapoznik, founder and CEO of 2myPlace, chaperoned five young women from the Innovation Academy High School’s Interact club at the 2022 Rotary International Convention in Houston, TX. She used this time to coach and teach life, social and business skills they can use throughout their lives. Cindee also worked with the girls on self-awareness and how to present oneself at the event they were attending.

She also introduced the girls with no affiliation with the Rotary and addressed the issue of Human Trafficking worldwide. With the help of Cindee and Annette Mansfield from 2myplace, the Interact Club created interactive games to teach teenagers how to avoid grooming, luring, education, prevention and awareness of trafficking.

“I would like to thank all our amazing supporters for helping us gauge the first steps to making a huge difference in our world. We have learned so much from this convention, much of which we strive to apply to our everyday lives. Our hearts are filled with gratitude for having the opportunity to meet such special, helpful, and inspirational people.”

Forty sophomores, juniors and seniors from Fulton County, GA, were eager to learn “how to” create their resumes and profiles based on their strengths and skill sets. Al Smith with 2myplace showed resume examples to entice the students and help them develop their resumes. As with anything, we do not want to “give them the fish,” but rather, teach them how to fish! Al’s specialty is creating resumes and LI profiles that help candidates get through companies’ scanning software. As lagniappe (a little something extra), he shared some anti-youth biases and strategies to overcome them in interviews.
