Letter to the Editor: Mayor Parrish Cares About Our Youth

Youth project organizer and founder endorses Mayor Harry J. Parrish for mayor.

I am writing to endorse Manassas City Mayor Hal Parrish for mayor.  I have had the pleasure of working with Mayor Parrish on several projects as he has faced many issues concerning the youth in our area.

Today, we as a nation and community are coming together to mend, revitalize and restore our great cities starting with our very own future—the youth and young adults in our area, who gladly stand behind Mayor Parrish and hope you will to.

As the founder of one of our area's growing youth projects, I can
speak first hand on behalf of our great mayor. The time, support and concerns he has forwarded to us is amazing.

I can give many instances, but this is the one that really speaks to my heart and the heart of the youth involved with Project Infusion. After requesting a sit down chat between Mayor Parrish and the youth from Project Infusion we were graciously granted 45 minutes to speak with the Mayor; 2 ½ hours later
we parted ways.

Mayor Parrish listen to concerns, stories, goals and dreams whether happy or sad, and was able to give support and a true ear, as well as leaving his door open for more projects.

Thanks again Mayor Parrish for not being afraid to face the masses and issues that come to distract and overtake our city head on. 

This is what our city continues to need and Mayor Parrish has been and still needs to be man that will take us to the next level.

Sincerely,

Tina Murray,
Founder/Director
Project Infusion Youth Program—“Mending and restoring what has been broken.”
