One of the iniatives of G.R.A.C.E Inc., was a clothing and footwear drive to benefit families of Grenada. The objective became imperative to provide the working class men with the proper equipment; as they were working in hazardous conditions. There efforts not only serviced internationally but locally as well providing for those in need in Brooklyn and The Bronx.
This was all made possible by wanting to assist others and the outpour of support was tremendous. The Harlem Self Storage allowing their space to be utilized as the drop off location was a great gesture in itself. Pooling resources together, spreading awareness and showing humanity to make the change you want to see and community better was accomplished.
