Thank you Friends of Joseph Floyd Manor

for shining a light in what has been a dark, forgotten place for as long as I can remember. I grew up half a mile from JFM. My mom is old school. She wasn’t giving up any money but she will feed you! From can goods to home cooked meals – mostly beans and rice, which is what we ate almost every day of the week. Good thing there are so many legumes to choose from. She would send me to the Manor often and someone there always needed whatever we had to give. And no, I wasn’t scared in that neighborhood, I was right at home.

We blessed.

There’s a big-a** rainbow over this building – us on one side and God on the other. We blessed. And y’all are bringing the colors
