ORBF PLEDGES $10,000 FOR COVID-19 PANDEMIC RESPONSE

In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Otis & Rosie Brown Foundation has committed $10,000 in support of feeding programs for the DFW community.

Under the leadership of Founder and Board Chair, Thasunda Brown Duckett and Executive Director, Shannon Flowers, ORBF is proud to match Mayor Jeff Williams donation to Mission Arlington. Mission Arlington has been serving the Arlington community since August, 1986. For more information on how you can help during these trying times, please visit missionarlington.org.   

ORBF gave $2,500 to the Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Ministry's Turn Around Agenda High School Hero's Program. Their event took place on Friday, July 31, 2020 on Facebook and YouTube Live.  Our donation went towards 25 Senior scholarships who maintained a 3.0 GPA or higher and submitted a reference letter for acceptance into the program.  The students attended the following high schools: Carter; Kimble; Lancaster; and Duncanville. Each student was featured during the live cast, stating where they are graduating from and what college they will be attending.

On May 5, 2020, Cinco de Mayo, ORBF will be in Fort Worth to disburse 200 meals through the Soul Good Food truck in partnership with Atmos Energy and the City of Fort Worth.  ORBF also partnered with Potter's House Church of Dallas providing $2,500 for the distribution of meals.
