Hancock County Children’s Mentoring Connection to Host Steve Pemberton at University of Findlay
Branden Ferguson Posted On March 25, 2024
Hancock County Children’s Mentoring Connection will host a guest speaker on the campus of University of Findlay April 23 at 7 p.m. in Winebrenner Theological Seminary. The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required.
Join University of Findlay in welcoming author, philanthropist, public speaker, and senior-level executive, Steve Pemberton. Pemberton will talk about his story about defying insurmountable odds to become a trail-blazing corporate executive, enlightened diversity leader, visionary youth advocate, and acclaimed speaker.
He will discuss his bestselling memoir, “A Chance in the World,” recounting his life journey and drive to become a man of resilience, determination, and vision. Turned into a motion picture in 2017, “A Chance in the World” amplifies Pemberton’s motivational messages: “Believe in your dreams,” “rise above obstacles,” “create opportunities for others,” and “persevere.”
Whether interested in business leadership, DEI, public speaking, writing, or Steve Pemberton writing, community members are encouraged to register for the free event today.
