The Russell Foundation helped establish the Leadership Program at UGA in 1985. This annual, cohort-based program helps first and second year UGA students develop leadership skills, interact with campus and community leaders, and learn more about the social issues facing the campus, community, state, nation, and world. Leadership UGA is a partnership between the Center for Leadership and Service and International Student Life. The Russell Foundation has been proud to support Leadership UGA.
