So I created a video and answered the essay questions as well as got a recommendation letter from literally someone on the streets of Detroit.
Having gone down to the D so often to visit, hand out food to the homeless or simply to roam the streets. I've met a few individuals one woman in particular is a street performer who truly confirmed that I belong in Detroit. I wanted to showcase to Challenge Detroit that I look forward to not taking hold of a great opportunity but I look forward to BEING A PART of the CITY because I TRULY have a passion and love for Detroit and the people in Detroit.
I will find out by March 24th if I made it on to the 3rd round which is where I will need EVERYONE's HELP with voting from April 1-7 and then they will select about 60 individuals for interviews and then the top 30 will be selected to make up the 2013-2014 Challenge Detroit Fellows team. I wanted to share with you all my Video as well as some of the clips of the Street performer Nyki Flyin.
I have done a lot from being on the outside, I cannot wait to get on the inside with the connections I have developed so far I can't wait to continue to bring people into the city who will fall in love and want to become a part of the city as well. I can't wait to be apart of re-energizing the individuals who live in the city. Well thank you for reading my rant about how I LOVE THE D here goes my challenge Detroit video and here goes a few unedited clips of Nyki Flyin, my adventures in the D and pictures and etc... Always remember to keep on Moving in Faith. What God has for us... is for us ;o).
