INSPIRATION
William A. Davis, II is the grandfather of our founder and largely responsible for the man he has become. Mr. Davis who was affectionately known as ‘BUMP’ was a war hero and jack of all trades with an enormous heart. His ability to see the best in people allowed him to selflessly pour into everyone he came in contact with. When ‘BUMP’ passed away in 2013 J’Vonn vowed to honor his legacy by giving back to his community in a way that he could have only learned from experience.
“Plan to change the world, not gain the world.”
- William A. Davis II
