NOVI, Mich. – January 17, 2013 – The Novi Educational Foundation (NEF) has a “vision.”  It’s simple – but very powerful!

“It’s about PERSONAL LEADERSHIP,” says Geoff Wood, NEF chairperson. “The NEF wants all Novi children to become leaders of their own life, have unique talents and make a positive difference in the world. That’s why we support – and want to expand – all the good things about Leader In Me.”
