DAY ONE: The Team Arrives!




Sixty-eight people from across the United States and as far away as the United Kingdom and Belgium converged on the Indianapolis area today...not for a vacation, not for business...they came for the sole purpose of changing lives. Sixty-eight people who have left their families and businesses to build homes for deserving families, create a playground that will bring a sense of community to a neighborhood and an abundance of joy to its children, and to help prepare a campground for the 600+ children being served by the Riley Children's Hospital that will attend camp there this Summer. Sixty-eight people who will act as one to leave a lasting legacy in Indianapolis. Long after the MDRT Annual Meeting, being hosted by Indianapolis, Indiana this June, has ended, these projects will continue to serve countless children and families in this remarkable city.
We are grateful to these dedicated volunteers, and to our lead corporate partners for this 50th anniversary service project: OneAmerica and UNIFI Companies. We also thank Prudential Financial for sponsoring our opening dinner and orientation.

Sixty-eight people, representing the over 35,000 members of the Million Dollar Round Table from around the globe. Tomorrow the life-changing work begins...but by the looks of anticipation on the faces of the team, it already has.
