In April of 2018, Cheryl Graham, a former nurse and case manager, decided to start an organization called Amazing Grace Health Ministries, Inc. after seeing a need for senior care. She helps senior citizens by giving out groceries, taking them to the doctor, and helping them with prescriptions.
“You know, not knowing how to maneuver through the healthcare system, not being able to pay a co-pay. One guy wasn’t taking his meds because he couldn’t read. He never told anyone, so being able to meet those needs was something that just gave me such fulfillment,” said Graham.
