Grand opening of Bill Rogers's Youth Foundation (Photos)

Selflessness is the greatest gift a person can have, loving others unconditionally despite what walks of life he or she has come from. This is genuine humility for others. How many of us, can truly say we know a handful of people as such or have been fortunate enough to cross paths with an individual of this Godly nature. One must be of God, or have divine innate love within them, to be this way, in that world do in fact need and yearn for people of the Mother Theresa type.

Bill Rogers born and raised in Monrovia, Liberia, is a young man of such courage, strength, and identity. Putting others before himself, always going above and beyond to extend a hand to a brother or sister in need, took upon himself, a sincere initiative, establishing the Bill Roger's Youth Foundation to uplift and empower youth all over the world. What masterful dream and audacity of hope, for one to step out on such faith, and now to see that vision becoming a reality in one’s very own eyes. The world and the Austin community command you Bill Roger's, Board Members, staff, volunteers, and all the souls that have helped make this project come to life. Join us this July 20th in Grand Praire, Dallas, Texas, as we launch the grand opening of the Bill Rogers’s Youth Foundation.
