In this episode of Blood, Sweat & Business, we sit down with Tara Panasewicz, CEO of the Boys & Girls Club of Kenosha, to hear how she transitioned from the banking world to nonprofit leadership. Tara shares what drew her to the mission of serving at-risk youth and why mentorship, community, and opportunity are central to building a stronger future.

Whether you're considering a nonprofit role or just want a deeper understanding of what meaningful leadership looks like, Tara’s story offers real insight and inspiration.
