Orlando & Leanora Brown<br />

“Many kids today lack the valuable<br />

teachings of Christianity. What you learn<br />

through your church, you carry with you<br />

for the rest of your life. This can have a<br />

great impact on a community and in<br />

the world.<br />

“We have a responsibility to help<br />

others become successful, contributing<br />

members of society. <strong>The</strong> best way for us<br />

to do this is by being good stewards and<br />

role models for children, particularly<br />

through our church. Giving is part of<br />

practicing Christianity. Learning to give<br />

is a divine gift of God.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Browns established a Charitable Checking Account<br />

in 1996 and the Orlando V. and Leanora D. Brown<br />

Endowment Fund in 2000 through the African-American<br />

Community Fund, a component fund group of <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Dayton</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>. <strong>The</strong>se funds guarantee their<br />

charitable support for organizations they care about,<br />

including Central Chapel AME Church, today and long<br />

after their lifetimes.<br />
