[Community-Service] We've Got One More For You!

[Jeanetta price]

Wow! I love 💕  the “Pope keyboarding with Hopes!”  Thank you Pope for your dedication to help others find their melody, and play to their on beat.  Pope you are literally the real “Mac Man!”  Also, thank you Lyn with 1 N for seeking resources for me when I was ready to trash my Mac Computer. One priceless way to give back as demonstrated in Pope’s bio is teaching blind skills.  #PayItForward

> Pope is a father of two children, a boy and a girl. He is a fourth-generation musician raised on the south side of Chicago.  He has been playing many instruments such as the keyboard, organ, bass, and drums for a number of years now. His love for Gospel and his musical talents, has allowed him to serve a local church as the head musician! And to make it extra, extra special, it’s the same church where his Grandfather served as a pastor. Pope’s all-time favorite gospel musician is his Uncle, Kevin Bond from Chicago. Growing up, he had an extraordinary opportunity to travel with his uncle, and immerse himself in the music industry.  Observing the success of his uncle’s journey inspired him to become a musician himself.

Related Melody Music, LLC recently celebrated its first milestone and is over a year old! Although Pope’s strong suit is within the realm of gospel music production, he is more than willing to work with all genres.

His teaching abilities are not limited to the world of music, he has also been volunteering his time in teaching others how to navigate their Apple gadgets. He has helped Over 25 individuals with understanding and learning their smart devices. Actually, this is how he became involved with the Community Service Division. After spending time teaching our own president, Jeanetta Price, on how to use her MacBook, he started to explore the wonderfulness of the CSD. Now, he is a member of the Willing Workers committee and has been instrumental in teaching our own committee members how to navigate technology.

He also plans to open up a business and be a valuable resource to others in honing their skill sets. His ultimate professional goal, is to tear down barriers and employ others who might have been overlooked by most. His hope is that he can employ them as subcontractors and bridge that gap so they will eventually become business owners themselves.
