Listen "Feeding Family Through Culture and Goodwill"
Episode Synopsis
Our December episode takes a look at athletes and community leaders who are using their platform and resources to support the black community. As the holiday season approaches it's important for those to help their communities when and where they can. 1:55 We speak with former basketball player and sports commentator Kelenna Azubuike. We’ll hear how he had to adjust to moving to the U.S. from London and how his faith led him to his work in philanthropy and creating The Athlete's Corner. 15:20 We talk with Adrian Williams, Executive Director of The Village Project, and Brother Clint Sockwell, who leads the organization’s annual Kwanzaa program. Their organization provides vital resources to the San Francisco community such as senior programs, summer camps, and food distribution. Most importantly, The Village Project conducts an annual Kwanzaa program led by Brother Clint, where youth learn the tenants of Kwanzaa, the history of the holiday, and why it's important to the black community.
