Elevating Voices - Dymond from GRTV on Vimeo.
The mission of the BGC of Grand Rapids is to enable all young people to reach their full potential as responsible citizens through education, recreation, and other positive community experiences in partnership with the Grand Rapids Police Department.
We build community when we share our stories - whether they be a memory, an experience or just simply telling what we think is great about this place. The Elevating Voices project is collaborating with 12 local nonprofits through the summer and fall to collect the stories of the voices we don't always hear in mainstream media. This story was captured at the Seidman Boys and Girls Club on October 22.
Dymond shares an experience from her day at school and how she thinks we can make the world a better place.
STORY MATTERS. is a story collecting project from The Rapidian and GRTV. You can see all the Story Matters videos archived at therapidian.org/placematters/story
