ClearEdge President, Leslie Vickrey proudly serves on the board of directors at Union Park High Schools. As a nonprofit, Chicago-based school management organization, Union Park High Schools is leading the effort to design, open, and operate a network of union-partnered charter high schools in the city's least served communities. Its mission includes promoting supportive working and learning environments for teachers by emphasizing collaborative decision-making, providing ongoing professional development, and by fostering mutually beneficial relationships of respect between teachers and governing bodies – relationships founded on a common interest: providing students with the best education possible.

Kathryn Dooley Memorial Scholarship

On September 14, 2010, ClearEdge Marketing lost a dear friend and colleague, Kathy Dooley after a courageous battle with leukemia.
