In keeping with our theme of the village, it is my pleasure and unique honor to spotlight this amazing visionary, Hope Hollinsworth Coaxum. We met intially when she inquired about some of our design services for her second novel and have been sister-friends and business associates ever since. I am so blessed by her testimonies of overcoming and willingness to reach out and reach back and help others overcome.
Hope is really a remarkable young woman who hosts a broad range of talents and interests. She wears all of her multiple hats quite well, woman, wife, mother, activist, author, playwright, director, employer, publisher, just to name a few. She is also active in her local church and community, and spearheads many outreach initiatives in the Yonkers area.
We want to thank her for allowing us to spotlight her. I pray that her sharing will spill over into the lives of others, that they too may be inspired.
"Where there's a need for hope, is where you'll find Hope."

The blog post this week is directed toward the consumers, yes, the customers. We have a tendency to be very hard on the merchants in our community. We place more stringent rules and guidelines for patronage on our local merchants than on the larger stores and mall merchants we often frequent.
A young man approached me and inquired about going into business part time. My response to him was phrased in the form of question. I asked him, “What are you good at?
