As the founding member, Shawnna Wardlaw had idea to continue her community service career her way after working for the city government for several years… Assistant Film and Event Specialist of Department of Citywide Administrative Services, DCAS. She  coordinated events and filming with productions permitted at the time in 55 DCAS government building locations.  After being promoted to Administrative Assistant to the Commissioner & Deputy at Mayor's Office of Veteran Affairs now called Dept. of Veterans Affairs. Shawnna Wardlaw left city government entirely to purse her acting career. Her passion for sharing resources, civil service came natural and was warranted to form a more efficient way in doing so. Therefore, she continued to help an improve circumstances of anyone she encountered.

When COVID-19 hit many people at home needed much assistance. Whether it was the lasted health hack; news on the infection; information on city initiatives; DIY trends, etc... you name it we were chatting about it online. Online was more personal and a go-to for connection then ever. We shared personal heartfelt stories on what is was like during the pandemic.  Some of us were having a hard time in the Arts. For example: Self tapes were becoming the new norm in submitting for an audition. So many people were crying out for help it was daunting just to see the discourse. The support was there, the guidance was needed. By developing this network we bring people together from different backgrounds who wouldn't normally come together but get together for creating a common interest. Find a way you can contribute in your neighborhood here. You never know, your advice can help someone reach their dreams or even help with their current circumstances.

Each one teach one...
