The Society of Leadership, Ethics and Character is comprised of a growing community of friends, philanthropists, Siegel Institute business associates, educators, government leaders, KSU faculty and staff, alumni, and international affiliates. Our members desire to support the vision and participate in the mission of the Institute through its programs and initiatives.
Society of Leadership, Ethics and Character members of all contributing levels play a key role in sustaining the mission of the Siegel Institute. Your philanthropic contributions open doors of opportunity for our staff and members to build ethical leaders from the inside out and thereby affect social change. Your membership fees and other contributions support our programs and initiatives, and ensure the realization of our vision. In this way, you endow the future of our culture through leadership, ethics and character education and shape lives toward building a better world.
An ongoing goal of the Institute is to expand its altruistic offerings to the community. We will continue to support current partners while seeking and creating new relationships that enable the Institute to work with businesses, universities, community groups, non-profit and other organizations committed to the goal of valuing diversity and enhancing ethical conduct and leadership.
