James Harris, 20, was officially elected into the Board of Directors for his exemplary leadership as a young artist, community change agent, and his commitment to personal academic and career success. As a former New Look camper, current "Mogul in Training," member of the Youth Philanthropy and Advisory Board, and one of the first young people to execute a Powered By Service project, James has been engaged in every program Usher's New Look offers. Read all about James's project to benefit "Nothing But Nets" - malaria prevention in the November 20 news item below.
In February 2009, James put his power to the ultimate test by testifying with Usher in front of Congress on the importance of service and the Service America Act, a bill passed to expand opportunities for service.
Congratulations and well done, James, on your Board appointment.
