Working with the Psi Alpha Scholarship Foundation has altered my entire life for the better! These Omega Men ?? have allowed me to be their strategic growth facilitator and business development consultant and have not once looked back! We are moving full steam ahead and taking over! These men gave me a chance and I’m doing everything in my power to succeed… which I’m excelling at! Just to name a couple of actionable items I’m contracted for: - Reconstructing their website from a blank slate - Grant research, education/teaching and writing - Digital presence establishment - Graphic design - Nonprofit organization development - Social media management - Fundraising management And list goes on!! This just goes to show that The Opia Designs Company & I are not slowing down anytime soon, and much more is to be accomplished. God isn’t done with me yet! Shout out to one of my mentors, Mr. Jeremy, who literally assisted in orchestrating everything! I couldn’t be here without him! #OmegaPsiPhi #ScholarshipAndService #OpiaDesignsCompany #TheOpiaDesignsCompany #PsiAlphaScholarshipFoundation #PASF #NonprofitOrganization #CommunityDevelopment #GrantWriter #ResearchAndDevelopment
