CLEVELAND — Around the corner from my childhood home, Anjenette Whitted is changing the way my community helps one another.
"We face a lot of challenges," she explained. "We face a lot of things that other communities don't."
Whitted saw that her neighbors in Glenville were struggling. The neighborhood is a food desert—with only one grocery store nearby. So, she decided to take action to help others easily access food.
