Excited about this concept! My father has been active in the african american community both in Charleston and in Charlotte for years. He has never sought any recognition and yet has made such a powerful impact in thd lives of so many youth. While he may not be a power player in the business arena he certainly is a power player in the community! My sister and I posted a picture of him helping to market our business in the Historic Westend Market which made QCityMetro, a local news publication in Charlotte NC
