Testimonials

January 2011

John Hope Bryant is an incredible human being.  His motivating, inspiring and persuasive spirit left a lasting impression on our group and undoubtedly on all the guest that attended the 2011 18th Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Unity Breakfast in Decatur, AL.  His message of hope, internal wealth and service to others created an excitement for our community that will have lasting benefits to all of us.  The feedback we're receiving strongly suggests an extremely meaningful experience for all attendees. There have been multiple expressions of appreciation from all segments of our community regarding the event, the message and the messenger. 
 
We had very ambitious financial needs and goals for this year.  There was a disproportionate number of economically disadvantaged minority high school seniors that applied for educational assistance from our association that probably could not afford college without additional resources.  John motivated our community to help reach and exceed the set goals beyond our expectations.  In addition, John Hope Bryant saw our program and our need and personally committed funds to our association and confirmed for us all, who John Hope Bryant is. 
 
John's message provided us with a snapshot of a united community, a view of the potential success that exists for us in our city and valuable information to motivated us to reach the goal of a truly united city, state and world.  We will forever be grateful to John Hope Bryant for his visit to Decatur, AL.

All the Best,
