2025 Leadership Cleveland Graduation & Alumni Association Scholarship Luncheon

Join us for the 2025 Leadership Cleveland Graduation and Alumni Association Scholarship Luncheon on Wednesday, May 21, at 11:30 a.m. at the John D. Nichols Room (downstairs of the beautiful Lee Chapel) as we honor the graduates of the current year's program and raise funds to provide a non-profit executive with a scholarship to the program. 

Each year, if funding is available, the scholarship committee of the Leadership Cleveland Alumni Association awards a scholarship or partial scholarship for the Leadership Cleveland program to a non-profit executive in Cleveland and Bradley County. The funds raised at this luncheon along with alumni donations support that scholarship.


Our guest speaker is Andrew Dinsmore – Store Manager and Associate Owner at Publix. To say that Andrew is heavily involved in the community is an understatement. He is a board member for The Chamber of Commerce, board member member for the Epilepsy Foundation of Southeast Tennessee, VP of the Board of Trustees at the Museum and Cultural Center at 5ive Points, a member of the Rotary Club of Cleveland where he serves as Sergeant-at-Arms, YPC VP and Member of the Board of the United Way of the Ocoee Region where he served as campaign chair in 2023-2024, Chairman and Business Volunteer/Student Educator at Junior Achievement of the Ocoee Region, sits on the Cleveland Advisory Board of the Ronald McDonald House and serves as Alumni President, Trustee and Member of the Board at St. Andrew's - Sewanee School. One of his favorite pastimes is attending the Kentucky Derby annually. Andrew is a member of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. He and Jennifer, have three children: Haley, Logan, and Taylor.   

Andrew has a great message on Leading in Your Community - Make a Difference in the Place You Call Home.
