March 11, 2010: The Colorado Springs Business Journal (CSBJ) hosted it’s annual Rising Star’s banquet and awards ceremony and EE President, Katy Houston, was honored to be recognized. The award recognizes business leaders under 40 who have made significant contributions to their chosen industries and community.

As someone new to the nonprofit world, Houston found the event to be a valuable networking opportunity for Empowering Education and was eager to share the mission of the organization with other young business leaders while learning about exciting programs in the Pikes Peak region. Humbled and grateful for the nomination that came from EE co-founder, Andy Wilfong,  Houston hopes the Rising Star designation will open many doors of opportunity for EE and start buzz in the Colorado Springs community about the REAL course curriculum!
