I am a substitute teacher/bus driver, musician, former assistant pastor, but most importantly I am a family man. What excites me is to see people doing well in life by finding out their God-given purpose and fulfilling it. I hate to see generations of people living in poverty. It is not always about the environment as it is about mindset. I would like to spend more time learning 2 things; How to become a producer( providing goods and services to benefit my city). and how to seize opportunities In the end, I want to leave a legacy for my grandchildren to live by. |
I used the community toolbox as part of an assignment for my college course called "Critical Thinking" |

I'm a member of a small non-profit organization hoping to address community health and development problems of a small, isolated community in the Navajo Nation. Approximately 40% of residences lack electricity and running water. Un-employment is high, alcohol and drug addiction are problems. The nearest health providers are over 50 miles away. The residents of this community are great people with huge hearts and they deserve much better than what they have. |
We are using the CTB to guide our development as an organization and Board of Directors, and will rely on it heavily to direct our efforts at addressing key initiatives. |
