Ep 20: Growing Up In Poverty, Shannon Foreman, has come full circle with Urban Ventures: Empowering Urban Families toward a better tomorrow.

Inspiration to help those in need comes in many forms. Some do it because of their fortunate circumstances, and others do it because they've been there. Shannon Foreman has been there. Shannon grew up in South Minneapolis, daughter of a mother working three jobs. She never went to the park alone and was always in before dark. She knew the streets were dangerous, but she also knew that the residents of South Minneapolis looked out for her. They "had my back." Shannon has since gone to college and is a successful professional with a family. And even though she's moved out of South Minneapolis, her heart still remains, along with a huge desire to help those that helped her survive the streets. Shannon helps in a significant way. A true blessing for those that need the tools to succeed. In this episode of Advice Givers (r), you'll learn how Shannon is changing lives with the help of Urban Ventures, and how you can help change lives, too.  Inspiration to help those in need comes in many forms.
