“I hope everyone interested in helping to end poverty in Oakland County will join us on Oct. 15,” says Susan Masiak, spokesperson for the Pathway to Self-Sustainability project. “You will hear about local poverty and local projects that end poverty, one family or person at a time, permanently. Each of us can make an important difference in some way.”
