Inasmuch Foundation

On June 27, the Inasmuch Foundation Community Fellowship Class of 2024 gathered at RIVERSPORT Adventures for a summer retreat. Fellows started the day exploring their core values, then heard from a panel of community leaders about the importance of leadership, community involvement and civic engagement. After lunch, the fellows got to experience whitewater rafting and all that Riversport has to offer! A special thanks to the panelists who opened up about their personal experiences and provided thoughtful leadership insight for our fellows: 💙 Andre' Caldwell, Director & Senior Counsel for Mobility Surveillance and Bombers within Boeing Defense, Space & Security 💙 Perrin Duncan, Program Officer at Arnall Family Foundation and Community Fellow Alum 💙 Commissioner Allie Friesen, Commissioner of the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services 💙 Mayor David Holt, Mayor of Oklahoma City & Dean of the Oklahoma City University College of Law
