May 2020 out of the clear blue sky I received a message from a lady I never met, little did I know this message would change the trajectory of my life! #IDIDMYPART was a campaign started in Houston, TX by the BeyGood Foundation. A generous donation of $6,000,000 toM25:M in Ohio began what is now known as the Greater CleveLand Distribution Collective(GCDC).
I founded GCDC in 2021 and began operating as a charitable organization. By 2022, I began operating as a membership based organization that provided seniors with much needed resources such as hygiene and sanitation supplies.
For a $10 monthly membership fee, you will also get free classes in Art and Crafts, Financial Literacy, Holistic Health, Entrepreneurship, Safety and Security and Community Organization and Free Special Events.
The partnership with Barbara Bradford-Williams’ After School program “Our Youth Our Future” located at 9250Miles Park in the Historic Union Miles neighborhood is the most innovative project I’ve seen in this country.
Since the grand opening of the Hygiene Hub, the 1st in NEO located in the Historic Union Miles District, we co-sponsored with the Union Miles Community Development Corporation two drive through distributions giving out over $50,000 in free hygiene and sanitation supplies.
The goal is to establish at least 2 Hygiene Hubs in NEO by 2024. Any community that wants a hygiene hub in their area please send an email to Gcdccustomerinfo@gmail.com for requirements.
