Move Over Alan Jennings

Yes, I know that Jennings retired from Community Action, but there's a new sheriff in Dodge anyway. Gregory Edwards has grown his church into a multi-faceted program. A couple of years ago his organization was gifted the historic Zion Church, where the Liberty Bell was hidden during the Revolutionary War. But, the Allentown of 2025 isn't much for history. 

Resurrected Community Development Corp., an arm of Resurrected Life Community Church, will renovate and build an addition to its Children’s Academy at 916 W. Turner St. The $7mil project is mostly funded by federal tax credits funneled to the corporation by Finanta.  Finanta appears to be the king of community non-profits. It was started with a $90mil grant, and has developed into a credit union and statewide lender.

If I was a nicer and smarter man, this blog would be a 501c. It's truly non-profit, I don't even get a salary. I do, however, get a lot of dirty looks...
