WELCOME
Focusing America’s Future
ONE LIFE AT A TIME
DEAR FRIENDS,
When we look at SkillsUSA’s accomplishments in 2012, there’s
no shortage of facts and figures to illustrate how this organization
is growing and evolving to better serve students. We celebrated
the highest membership in our history and unveiled the largest
national conference and SkillsUSA Championships ever. Our
Washington Leadership Training Institute saw its biggest turnout,
website hits and Facebook “likes” soared, and, for the sixth
straight year, at least 90 percent of our total revenue went right
back into programs and services to benefit our members.
But what continues to be so deeply life-affirming about
SkillsUSA isn’t found in numbers, but in what those numbers
represent: young lives forever changed by involvement in an
organization that values character development as highly as
professional accomplishment, that celebrates what’s given to
others as much as what’s gained for ourselves, that strives to
counter the age-old question, “What’s wrong with young people
today?” with a shining example of what’s right.
A growing number of lights are flickering on across the
country at this very moment as more young people discover their
passion, focus and purpose through SkillsUSA. As our partners
and friends, you’ve helped make those lights shine. We offer our
heartfelt thanks for your support, but, even more, we hope you
feel the pride that comes from sparking real, lasting and positive
change. If you’re not currently a supporter, we hope you’ll get
involved in what’s shaping up to be the most exciting leg so far
of a nearly 50-year journey. As you’ll read in the pages ahead, it
was a great 2012, but the best — thanks to you — is yet to come.
