The program, developed by the National Association of Insurance Women (NAIW) International, is the organization’s most prestigious and popular development program. Participants in the course have an opportunity to develop their stage presence, thought organization, and presentation methods through which they can enhance their abilities in their chosen career and in NAIW.
Jennifer will go on to compete at the regional level at the Region III Conference in March 2005 in Gulfport, MS, and if she is successful there, she will compete at the national level at the NAIW National Convention in June 2005 in Reno, Nevada.
Johnson & Johnson, Inc. Mgrs. of Charleston, SC, sponsored the state level speak-off for the ninth straight year. Additionally, Johnson & Johnson will sponsor the state winner to the regional contest for the tenth straight year.

State Project
Check out the link www.bubelaiken.org (see Links Section below left). Make sure to watch the intro movie to learn more about the Bubel Aiken Foundation.
Our state project this year is to raise AT LEAST $1,000 for the Bubel Aiken Foundation.
Having a child that was born severely pre-mature, and having the miracle of seeing him grow into a healthy, happy boy has made me realize how fortunate and blessed I am. Other parents haven't been so lucky. So many children need our help and the Bubel Aiken Foundation is doing a phenomenal job making resources available to these children.
With the help of the IWSC family - we can make a difference!
Please give generously.
For information on fundraising ideas or how to turn in your contributions, please contact Stephanie Manley, S.C. State Director at smanley@bbandt.com or (864) 672-1378.
