Profile-Emma Andrews

I have been involved in both non-profit community and private sector service for more than thirty years in various areas of community and economic development. In order to continue to be focused in my community, I remain very active in my involvement in community revitalization and community/economic development.  I have received certification in the areas of Neighborhood Leadership through the City of Dayton, Community Revitalization and Community Development (including construction project management which covers home inspection and home improvement education), Strategic Planning and Financial Literacy.  I have been an IRS coordinator for three volunteer income tax sites (VITA) in the Dayton, Ohio area for the past 17 years, to assist low-income families with financial literacy education and college enrollment information. I have also been a mentor for at risk youth in math and English. I have received various certifications and recognitions for my community participation, as I am a servant and believe in helping our communities to develop a better way of life. Our youth are our future and their success depends on us providing what they need, supporting them, and helping to mold their character.
