  Lived in a hood like this called Cherryvale SC and took a chance to move with my aunt in California with a trash bag full of clothes and $20 in my pocket and now I’m a supervisor at American Airlines. Will power is strong if you really want to change your life…

  the young man speaking with the dreads and the glasses who spoke of investing and how the community comes together should be mayor. Everyone should rally around him. He truly has an interest and love for his town and all the people in it. He also will not look down on the young people, but meet them where they are. May God bless you with protection, resources, and a trustworthy team. Amen

  I love hearing the older generation talk. You can learn a lot just by listening.
