It is our mission and vision and our intention to remember the truly forgotten and – in point of fact – abandoned citizens of our inner-cities.

     No one will invest in these communities, or in its people. We, at The GNZ, will change that, if you will take part.

     We are a nonprofit organization and all donations are tax-deductible.

     The White House, Senators, Representatives (Federal and State), Professional Athletes, Artists, Businesses... Everyone recognizes the dilemma –– everyone shouts that somebody ought to do something...

     Speaking, Shouting, Pointing, Blaming; this has been the way for decades and I ask you, What good has it done?

     For too long we have all moaned and groaned about inner-city violence. Some have even utilized various platforms in an attempt to focus attention to the negative circumstances inherent to a lack of quality education and skills: gangs, violence, police profiling, lack of respect for law enforcement, poverty, hopelessness...

   Everybody wants things done; Politicians, Police, Professional Athletes, National and Individual State Officials –The Woke, the Un-Woke – Everyone that is, except those that are simply hard-hearted or callously indifferent to the plight of others...

Most simply shrug their shoulders and say, What can you do? Nothing Works — It’s all been tried before...  It’s hopeless! Those people will never learn!  

   These questions are not asked while seeking answers; They are statements of exasperation. In bitter reality, they are statements of futility, or excuses to not get involved... excuses to do nothing.​

​

There are actually two choices only:

1. Shrug and hope someone else will do anything more than talk and raise awareness, or...

2. Take an active part in the solution to this persistently existent and nearly hopeless situation –– right here in our American Inner-cities.

   So...
