Met with other agencies and individuals for training and resources. Collaborated with Pastors Inc. LL IFA Johnson), an organization that assists churches in underpriviledged areas of South Carolina develop land for low-income housing, rental property, etc. All Alumni churches were invited to complete a questionnaire provided by Pastors Inc. From that pool, six churches were selected for site visits. The six visits were conducted between July-August 2023 with FA Johnson along with Tia Brewer-Footman and Gerald Footman. The team met with the churchs non-profit team, reviewed 3-year financials, balance sheets, deed and walked the property. Three churches were chosen to move forward. 1. Faith in Action (Apostle Bernard Whaley - North Charleston, SC) 2. Restoration Life Ministries (Pastor Theodore Pasley - Columbia, SC) and The Net International (Pastor Shawn Laribo - Summerville, SC). Faith in Action selected to be the first ministry to work with as the City of North Charleston had $70,000.00 Block grant air-marked to start the process of developing their property in that specific area. This process will allow them to start the development plans of 9 units for low-income houses.
