Grant Eckhoff

On January 13, 2005, Grant Eckhoff became the youngest member of the Diversity Council at the age of 9. Grant became involved with the Diversity Council as a student participating in the Prejudice Reduction Workshops at Sunset Terrace elementary school. Last year, Grant shared his experiences at our 2004 annual meeting, charming the audience with his humor and confidence.

This year, Grant Eckhoff has agreed to an even bigger challenge--Grant will co-chair the Diversity Council development campaign with his father, Jon Eckhoff of Venture Computers. After this year’s Prejudice Reduction Workshops, Grant wrote an email saying, “The Diversity Council is helping the world and the people in it. We should never ever let the Diversity Council die. It's one of the best things I've seen in my life and I bet other people think that too. The Diversity Council is helping people understand diversity like never before (except when Martin Luther King gave his speech). Thanks for helping people around the world. Thanks!!!! Grant”

And thanks to you too, Grant! We look forward to working with you.
