Larry James

Larry James is the President and CEO for Central Dallas Ministries, a human and community development corporation with a focus on economic and social justice at work in inner city Dallas, Texas. Larry’s blog, Larry James Urban Daily, is a repository of ideas, resources, commentary and opinions concerning the issues facing low-income residents of the inner cities of the United States and how mainstream America largely forgets or, worse, ignores the day-to-day realities of urban life for the so-called “poor.” Each day, Larry challenges his audience to a deeper awareness about poverty and social injustices.

In one of his most recent entires, entitled Help Me, James lays out his vision to raise $100,000 to create a housing development in Downtown Dallas designed especially for low-income and homeless persons. I know you may be skeptical, but I believe this is a cause worthy of your investigation. If you’d like more information, just follow the links from this post and check out Larry’s ministry. I urge you to consider if this is a cause you could support.

    Wonder if I (someone) write CDM that they would share how they got started. No reason we couldn’t turn the ICCC into something as powerful.
