Statements from VCEF Board Members

“ In working with youth groups I have seen, and continue to see so many young people with raw potential, but never the desire to develop such potential. My joining the VCEF is an effort to do my part to give our young people another avenue to discover things that interest them in life and thereby giving them the desire to maximize their potential to become productive citizens.”

- Calvin W. Yarbrough
Hospital Negotiations
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield

" At Northrop Grumman Newport News we have had an apprentice school for the past three quarters of a century. This school provides us with skilled trades as well as the nucleus of our waterfront management. This blending of education with practical work experience is one of the key discriminators in our business. My goal for the VCEF is that it can stimulate this type of program and subsequent success in other industries and locales in VA"
