Michael Yung had been looking for an organization to get involved with when his boss suggested that he take a look at Everybody Wins! Iowa. “I was looking for something that emphasized the importance of education, so that’s really what drew me in,” he says. Michael joined the board in 2020 and serves as co-chair of the Special Events Committee. “As a member of the Board of Directors, I’d like to see us grow and ensure and that we’re meeting the needs in the community,” he says, adding that his work with the Special Events Committee is a fun way to brainstorm new ways to share the story of EWI. Michael is a mentor at Crestview School of Inquiry in Clive, and notes, “When I’m in the school I enjoy seeing the impact the program has, helping the students learn and then show their personalities as the relationship develops.”
