<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:106%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">My name is Bryant and I’m on fire about giving back to my
community! </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:106%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">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.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:106%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">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.</p>
