Our Executive Director, Mr. Thomas McGhee welcomed everyone to our Business Expo and spoke about the history of The Village prior to introducing our two distinguished speakers.
Our first speaker, a seasoned entrepreneur, shared his expertise on business credit while our second speaker, also a seasoned entrepreneur discussed budgeting strategies.
Both speakers have a wealth of knowledge and experience in their respective fields, and we are fortunate to have them here with us today.
At The Village, our mission is to provide solutions that help individuals empower themselves, their families, and those around them.
Corey Goree, our first speaker, is a seasoned entrepreneur with a wealth of experience in starting and growing successful businesses.
He emphasized the importance of building and maintaining good credit for any business, regardless of its size or industry.
Corey also shared valuable insights about how businesses can establish and maintain strong credit, how to use credit to finance growth, and how to avoid the common pitfalls that many business-owners face when dealing with credit.
Daniel Taylor, also a seasoned entrepreneur, and our second speaker, is a financial expert who spoke about budgeting.
He highlighted the importance of creating and following a budget to ensure the long-term personal and business success.
Daniel also provided practical tips on how businesses can create a budget that works for them, how to manage cash flow effectively, and how to make smart financial decisions that help us achieve our goals.
At The Village, we believe education is a key component of our mission, which is why we are proud to host events like this business expo that offer valuable insights and advice for small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Through our work, we aim to create a world where everyone has the opportunity to achieve their goals and live their best life.
We believe that by empowering individuals with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed, we can create positive change in our communities and beyond.

Our Speakers
All of our speakers provided invaluable insights into the dynamics of domestic violence and the importance of prevention. They shared practical strategies for recognizing and addressing domestic violence, as well as resources for survivors and their loved ones.

Following the keynote address, our panel of domestic violence survivors shared their personal experiences and insights into the effects of domestic violence on individuals, families, and communities.

We hope you enjoyed our event featuring two important topics that affect our community deeply - mental health awareness and removing barriers to communication between parents and teachers.
Mr. Thomas McGhee, Executive Director of our organization, is committed to bringing awareness to the critical issues that impact our society, and we were honored for everyone who came out to join us for this very important discussion.
Our first speaker, Gina Thompson, delved into the important topic of mental health. As we all know, the challenges and uncertainties of the past few years have taken a significant toll on our collective well-being. It is imperative that we prioritize our mental health and seek support when needed.
Topics of discussion were debunking the myths and common stigmas associated with Mental Health among the African American community, why Mindset Matters, the role Trauma plays on our Mental Health and Overall Well-being, Creating a Growth Plan and the Importance of Small Steps.
Denise Montgomery, our second speaker, addressed the issue of communication between parents and teachers. Ms. Montgomery has spent the past 3 decades educating students in Dallas ISD and she is currently a GED instructor.
As parents, we all want the best for our children, and their academic success is a top priority. Effective communication between parents and teachers is crucial for achieving this goal. Denise shared strategies and best practices for breaking down communication barriers and fostering a collaborative relationship between parents and teachers.
Both of these topics were of the utmost importance, and we are confident that this event provided valuable information and tools that benefited us all. We encouraged everyone to participate actively in the discussions and take away actionable ideas that they could implement in their daily lives.
Thank you for joining us, and we look forward to hosting more engaging and insightful events in the future.

Home Ownership
December 22, 2022
For most home buyers, the purchase of real estate is one of the largest financial transactions they will make.
Buyers purchase a home not only for the desire to own a home of their own, but also because of changes in jobs, family situations, and the need for a smaller or larger living area.
As a Licensed Realtor, Mr. Thomas McGhee consistently goes above and beyond to help families to become homeowners.
Mattie Nash-Davis Recreation Center Christmas Toy Drive
December 17, 2022

Veterans Day Program Farm & Home Loans
November 5, 2022
Mr. Terren Moore was our keynote speaker. We had a great discussion on how to setup your farm, farming products, methods for best managing your farmland, how to qualify for and apply for home loans.
This Program was also geared towards Veterans with resources for Veterans looking to start a business, mental wellness services, labor market information/employment services, ordering military service records, and benefits assistance.
Farmland Acquisition
November 17, 2022
In a day and age when many of us are far removed from the
farm, teaching youths about agriculture is more important than ever.
Farming teaches children of all ages life skills like raising food, working hard, communication, caring for others and much more.
We are in the process of acquiring 100 acres of Farmland in Mount Pleasant, Texas (contracts pending) to teach our youths how to grow crops using aquaponics.
