*Meet a Willing Worker!*

*Bryant Patton from East Orange, New Jersey *



My name is Bryant and I’m on fire about giving back to my community!

I want to give a little background on myself. I am a proud father of four
beautiful children: I raised three girls and one boy. I am also a proud
grandfather of six wonderful grandchildren. I am a huge football fan!  My
favorite team is the New York Giants and I will be happy to discuss their
excellence with anybody! I have a thirst for knowledge and am always
willing to learn. My independence is important to me and I set goals to
achieve that very thing.

In 2016, I became visually impaired because of diabetes and high blood
pressure. If that was not enough, I also had to have my right kidney
removed and start dialysis treatments. For some, that may have slowed them
down or discouraged them. Not me! I run two different groups; the Outsiders
and Men Moving Forward. I utilize different tools to bring awareness, raise
funds, provide support, and consistently work on expanding our network. My
love for service is so deeply rooted within me, I am always eager to get up
and show love and support to my neighbors and local communities.

Don’t wait! Get involved! My email is: bryantcp1967 at gmail.com
