DETROIT (WXYZ) — It all started with a conversation, which led to a friendship and a genuine bond between people from different places.
But their faith, mutual respect and acceptance of one another turned into something truly powerful. And it is making a difference for a neighborhood. A nonprofit organization called Black Leaders Detroit and dozens of relationships.
7 Action News Reporter Andrea Isom introduces us to the three people in the center of it all.
Black Leaders Detroit is a funding vehicle for black entrepreneurs in the city. It focuses on profit and nonprofit businesses and organizations by offering loans and grants.
