Burks says it all started while dreaming about rainbows in the sky.She says this has to do with the promises of God.We are social workers for generational children. Because as we know our children need the promise to teach them," said Burks.Burks says in that time children, now adults have gone to the Army, become doctors, lawyers and production people."They always reach out to me and say thank you. Thank you for giving me my foundation," said Burks.I asked Burks how does she manage to do so much without funding?"So without no funding , no grants, we are still here for because I'm invested in the children, I'm invested in the community," said Burks.Burks says she has establish a senior take over coalition in Washington County.The group helps young people in teaching and developmental skills including Character Education.Just this week some of the Hollandale seniors helped organize a mourn in silence for Jadarius Jenkins and it went even better than expected."That's what were teaching them support, empathy, sympathy, and basically some of them even gave their lives to God in Christ," said Burks.Burks says they are searching for the next generation of children.She says our children need the promise to teach them the foundation.---Shining A Light in Greenville, Tony Fruits, The Delta News.</div></body>
