• Third prize and $500 goes to Natalie Davis, a college freshman at Elmhurst College.
“The applicant submissions were impressive and our selection team had their work cut out for them in selecting just three recipients,” Terry McGuire, HALO Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications said. “This, and HALO’s ongoing commitment to the Promotional Products Education Fund (PPEF) as a Tomorrow Fund contributor, are excellent investments in the business leaders of tomorrow.”
