Hello Chevene, I am working with families that are dealing with incarcerations in their life and that makes them at-risk. We are in the process of bringing them to ATL to perform and have a charity fundraiser for the movement, It's All Hood! Families Behind Bars, Children of Prisoners and A Sylent Scream production. We are looking for organizations or people in the ATL area to help with this event. We are looking to be there for Black History Month in Feb. These youth that are performing are all positive teens and youth that are taking their hurts and pains and puttin it in songs. We will donate a percentage of our proceeds to the community that provides the venues and in hopes that it is used to assist families in that community.

Thanks Vince. At this time, I know non-profits do not have access to RD's loan origination software, UniFi. I'm not sure how much we've discussed the issues of access to CAIVRS in the 502 course.
