The Global Business Education Initiative is the next step of the LaSalle Institute business program. It will bring
the global business community and high school business academics together in a collaborative
environment. The business leaders who collaborate with the business program at La Salle recognize the
importance of beginning earlier in the education process of students who will become the business
leaders of the future. The goal in the future is to also develop collaborative environments with business
education at schools around the USA and globally.

This year, we’re offering a special event for kids to meet and mingle with Mrs. Claus. For an hour and a half, children will get to hang with Santa’s Number One helper (though she’ll tell you she does most of the work and gets none of the cookies).
Our interactive event will last approximately 90 minutes and includes hot cocoa and a special Christmas treat for each child. Kids will get to submit questions for Mrs. Claus that they’ve always wanted to ask. She’ll read stories and bestow her wisdom upon everyone.
The event begins at 1:00 on Saturday, December 2, after the North Creek Christmas Parade.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Johnsburg Food Pantry.
