🌟 Exciting Progress: Virtual Empowerment Zone (VEZ) 🌟 As a 2024 Health Leads Makers Resident, I’ve been working alongside the Gregory B.

Through extensive community engagement, including input from residents of Halifax and Northampton Counties, we’ve designed a platform that reflects local needs and priorities. The VEZ will serve as a digital hub for sharing information, events, and tools that promote health and well-being in Black and Indigenous communities. 🌍 We Need Your Support! 🙏🏾 To make this vision a reality, we are seeking donations to the Gregory B. Davis Foundation.
