pexels photo 133699This week, I will begin this post with a true story.

In my community, there were two-black owned and operated florists who have gone out of business, who were forced to close their doors. Both of whom I know personally and patronized, and received exceptional service. How can it be that they were not able to sustain? That’s the question I pondered then and even now.

Group Economics: Just What If?

computer 3224642 1280This week, I would like to further expound on this principle. I pose this question for all to ponder, “Just what if…” 

What if we stretch, expand our thinking around collaboration among churches, organizations and non-profits. What if they came together, joined forces so to speak?” What if we could then improve our purchasing power?

  • Learning IS the Institution

    pexels photo 356086

    A great deal of effort and expense is invested in education; in learning, which is indeed a necessary tool in order to contend and compete in the workforce or any specialized area of study or interest.

  • Community Economics

    dollar 1362244 1280In this and future blog posts, we will tackle and discuss the issue of economics and its impact  in our community. 

    As best we can, we need to make a concerted effort to commit to making our hard-earned dollars work for us. As the largest consumers, if all we earn is spent outside of the community, how can we sustain?

  • Are We Chasing Our Young People Out of the Community?

    graduate 2197406 1280This blog post again references the need for the support of local businesses, expansion and job creation within our communities. Tell me, what’s the incentive for our young people entering the work force to remain a part of the village? What do they have to invest in? What is there for them to build upon? Are we actually supporting a premise for them to desire to leave and never look back?
