Empowering Spirits Foundation, Inc.

I was introduced to A. Latham Staples back in May when he spoke at the Echoing Green dinner. Latham was so eloquent and is obviously passionate about promoting equality. I had the pleasure of seeing him speak again this past Thursday at the EG event in New York City. The video shown was moving, he was again excellent and humble, and I'm so impressed with the mission of ESF. I've never wanted to involved myself with other gay rights organizations as they have been "it's us, versus them." But ESF's approach is about reaching across the aisle and is truly the route to go. Great job Latham for your hard work and growth, and to everyone else at ESF! ...read more

A local church was there as well with about 50 volunteers. We broke off into a bunch of groups and did various neighborhood restoration projects from planting trees, to cleaning up a park and painting an out-building at a school.

It was great to see their mindsets change. What a great concept to dispel stereotypes Empowering Spirits! ...read more
