Right Hand Foundation Launches to Support and Uplift Underserved Communities in Atlanta


News Image

Right Hand Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to aiding families in unstable living conditions, launched last week in Atlanta to support underserved communities, specifically Atlanta-based single mothers and their children. Founded by Courtney Stewart, the manager of Grammy-nominated artist Khalid, Right Hand Foundation provides single mothers and children long-term housing, educational programs and the tools necessary to prepare them for lifelong success. In addition to housing, the foundation offers educational programs that include financial planning, workforce training, health and wellness training, and home transition support to help create a sustainable lifestyle for these women and their families.

Stewart is creating these “Right Hand havens” by purchasing properties in various Atlanta neighborhoods and revitalizing the houses, outfitting them with modern appliances and making them comfortable, rent-free homes for a family to use while they get back on their feet. The foundation’s first property in Historic College Park was recently completed and its newest tenant has plans to move in soon. After some time there, the family will be moved to a property where they will pay minimal rent and eventually, with assistance from the Right Hand team, move on to housing that is within their means.

“Atlanta is my hometown and to see these communities really suffering was something that resonated with me and I felt the drive and need to assist however I could,” says Stewart. “I have always enjoyed investing in the Atlanta community whether that’s with my time or investing in properties. Revitalizing the houses and using them to help those that need it seemed like the logical solution to blend my passions of real estate and giving back to the community that I love. Right Hand Foundation is the first step in a long journey for these women, and through the holistic approach we take, we are enabling them to become self-sufficient members of the community.”

Right Hand Foundation is not Stewart’s first experience in philanthropy. He has been supporting local Atlanta shelters since 2015 and earlier this year helped Khalid launch his own foundation, The Great Khalid Foundation, an education and arts focused initiative for communities in need. Most recently, The Great Khalid Foundation and the Right Hand Foundation hosted a benefit concert in Khalid’s hometown of El Paso, Texas, for the victims and families of the August 3 mass shooting. The concert, “Khalid & Friends: A Night for Suncity,” raised $500,000 for the El Paso Community Fund.

In order to ensure the right tenants find homes, Stewart is partnering closely with local nonprofits to find families who are a good fit for the program. Through an application process, the tenants will be referred to Right Hand Foundation and begin receiving the assistance they need. On October 10, in conjunction with Homelessness Awareness Day, the foundation hosted a private launch event in honor of their first long-term housing project being completed with notable attendees including Senate candidate Teresa Tomlinson, R&B musician Bobby V, and Linda Wolfe of The Great Khalid Foundation, among others. Photos and interviews are available upon request.

ABOUT RIGHT HAND FOUNDATION:

Right Hand Foundation provides single mothers and children with long-term housing, educational programs and infrastructure to prepare them for independent sustainability. Taking this holistic approach to supporting families in unstable living conditions is critical to preventing homelessness and putting families on a path to thrive. Right Hand Foundation works in underserved communities to uplift and guide future generations. The Foundation plans to build Right Hand “Havens” in communities throughout the country.

ABOUT COURTNEY STEWART:

As founder of Right Hand Management Group and Right Hand Foundation and co-founder of Keep Cool Records, Courtney Stewart leverages a 360-degree approach to all aspects of his business and philanthropy. By sharing a similar spirit and vision to his clients and the causes he supports, the artist manager, record label executive, and humanitarian maximizes every opportunity for success from all angles. This ability to align with artists and collaborate closely not only fostered the breakout of five-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated superstar Khalid, but it also cemented Stewart among the industry’s future leaders recognized on Billboard’s prestigious “40 Under 40” and named as one of Variety Magazines 2018’s Hitmakers.

Communities Nationwide to Participate in “Operation Legacy” Service Projects to Honor Fallen Military Heroes


https://www.prweb.com/

Travis Manion Foundation will host more than 100 “Operation Legacy” service projects across the country, taking place throughout the month of November

“During this time of unprecedented divide throughout our country, it is reassuring to see volunteers from various backgrounds step forward to unite their community through service.”

Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) will host more than 100 “Operation Legacy” service projects across the country, taking place throughout November. Operation Legacy is the fastest growing movement to unite communities across the nation to create positive change, where more than 3,500 participants are expected to volunteer as a way to honor the legacies of our fallen heroes. Each project across the country will be dedicated to a fallen military hero, who will be recognized during an opening ceremony. Select projects will also include a GORUCK component, where following the service project volunteers will ruck two miles or more carrying a weighted backpack.

Operation Legacy projects aim to engage veterans, families of the fallen, and civilians alike, by activating them to lead and serve others in their communities. Americans across the country are invited to volunteer with TMF for Operation Legacy, as a way to honor the past and build the future, while exemplifying the strength of America’s national character. All projects have been organized by local volunteers, who are helping to unite the community through service, and encouraging their neighbors to live by the “If Not Me, Then Who…” mantra to spearhead a movement of character, leadership, and selfless service.

“During this time of unprecedented divide throughout our country, it is reassuring to see volunteers from various backgrounds step forward to unite their community through service,” says Amy Looney Heffernan, Gold Star Wife of Lt. (SEAL) Brendan Looney and Vice President of TMF. “By bringing communities together to serve in honor of our fallen heroes, we are not just keeping their legacy alive, we are passing their values along to the next generation of leaders. “

Those interested in volunteering for upcoming projects can register or learn more information by visiting http://www.oplegacy.com. Those unable to attend this project can also start their own project by signing up as a Virtual Volunteer.

About Travis Manion Foundation

Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) unites communities to strengthen America’s national character by empowering veterans and families of fallen heroes to develop and lead future generations. In 2007, 1st Lt. Travis Manion (USMC) was killed in Iraq while saving his wounded teammates. Today, Travis’ legacy lives on in the words he spoke before leaving for his final deployment, “If Not Me, Then Who…” Guided by this mantra, veterans continue their service, develop strong relationships with their communities, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation.

The story of 1st Lt. Travis Manion and his Naval Academy brother Lt. (SEAL) Brendan Looney have been publicized in the book Brothers Forever, and additional information about the Foundation can be found at http://www.travismanion.org.

Transform Your Leaders Into Brilliant Motivators Using NEW Sciencology of Voice and Presentation – With Carol Stanley


Carol Stanley - Voice and Presentation Expert

Carol Stanley – Voice and Presentation Expert

To establish an emotional connection with your audience, you must understand how to harness the full potency of your passion, your thoughts, your voice, your body and posture, and your innate charisma.

Carol Stanley, author of “Born To Be Awesome,” and renowned expert trainer in voice and presentation, has just released her NEW “Sciencology” methodology, that is sure to transform your team leaders into dynamic motivators, and compel people to take action.

The voice of a leader is a powerful beacon that guides people on the right path. One’s journey toward success is never simple, and many people need someone to guide them along the way. Carol Stanley is here to inspire, train, and give you and your leadership team the tools you need to gain confidence, poise, and command over your voice, body, mind, and spirit while presenting from stage. Empower yourself with presentation skills that boost your charisma and give voice to your soul. It’s time to go from business leader to brilliant motivator, and compel people to take action.

We all know that the hardest challenge we face in life is the fight against ourselves, our passions, and our weaknesses. A brilliant and effective leader can motivate people to fight in a war and win the hardest of battles. Most business owners sense that they need guidance and direction, but they don’t always know what that looks like. It’s the motivating leader’s job to guide and teach and give voice to the solution they struggle to reach. Unfortunately, many business leaders lack the ability to command a room and ignite enthusiasm within their corporation no matter how informative their message may be. The truth is that only 7% of any communication is content. The more important 93% of communication is in the delivery which is critical to communication effectiveness and success.

“To establish an emotional connection with your audience, you must understand how to harness the full potency of your passion, your thoughts, your voice, your body and posture, and your innate charisma.”

Carol Stanley has guided countless CEOs, entrepreneurs, authors, and leaders with her vast knowledge of the science and physiology of voice and presentation. Her students quickly grew from unsteady and shaky presenters to capable, confident, and powerful leaders. Her job is to transform a leader into a compelling authority who can inspire and motivate any audience, even the most distracted one. Yes – even those teenagers who spend their days and nights with a smartphone in their hands. She will draw out all of your hidden talents to become the dynamic leader you were meant to be.

The Authentic Power of Voice

“Imagine being able to inspire people to take action with only a few words spoken.”

The words you use when you talk make up only a small portion of your ability to get your message across. Just 7 percent, to be precise. The remaining 93 percent of your communication lies in the way you use the power of your thoughts, your body, your posture stature, and your voice. Understanding the “sweet spot” of your voice, as Carol calls it, is critical to keep you in that zone where you can put your whole spirit, body, and soul behind your message. That’s the most effective technique to let that message fly across the room to reach and penetrate your audience. The vocal pitch, the timbre, the tone, the pace, and the pauses – they are all essential pieces of that incredibly complex mechanism that Carol calls the “sweet spot” of your voice that constitutes effective verbal and non-verbal communication. Learn to you use them in the right way, and you will be able to communicate your thoughts much more effectively.

But what Carol learned during all these years, is that powerful communication goes much beyond knowing all about pitches and pauses – something any average theater instructor will teach you. To establish an emotional connection with your audience, you must understand how to harness the full potency of your voice, your body, your posture, and your innate charisma. Together, they will all work like an instrument that can project your heart and soul through your message, and act as a bridge that connects your mind with your heart. Knowing how to get out of your head and speak from your heart means that you will link your voice with the most authentic place where your message is held. As you understand how to work on your authenticity and authority, you will stop acting as a brilliant leader and begin being a brilliant motivator.

Who is Carol Stanley?

Carol Stanley is much more than the average stage teacher or life coach. Since 1974, the beloved “Fairy Godmother” has guided hundreds of formerly frustrated leaders to step into their own unique brand of stage brilliance. She knows exactly how to equip even the least adept wanna-be speakers with the skills they need to become the stars they were meant to be. Carol told the world about the immense power that lies inside each one of us in her book, Incredible Life. And she did it full in-depth once again in her newest book, Born To Be Awesome – a guide to shining with brilliance on stage and camera through the power of God in you.

Carol has a vast background in stage, movie screen, TV and radio performance, as well as speaking, singing and modeling professionally. As part of her elite presentation skills training, she teaches EQ (emotional intelligence) personality science to empower speakers to communicate quickly and effectively with anyone and everyone. Carol is a Premier Success Coach for eWomen Network, and has been recognized as a business leader in Women of Distinction Magazine, Continental and Stanford Who’s Who. She is a crowd-pleasing, life-changing speaker and trainer who adds massive value with every innovative speaking strategy she shares and is specialized in engagement tools that keep the audience constantly focused and engaged.

The Transformation Awaits

“Your passion, beauty within, and the impact you make can shine boldly on stage or camera from the inside out … if you just lean into it.”

Whether you’re an experienced leader or an aspiring business coach, you will greatly benefit from Carol’s teachings. No matter how inexperienced or insecure you or your leadership team may be, she can transform anyone with heart and purpose to be an effective communicator. That’s the only thing that matters – as long as you have the heart and desire to become a better, more inspirational leader, Carol is here to provide you with the techniques and tools to get you there.

Invite Carol to speak at your next leadership event.
