During the most recent Executive Committee meeting, Miss DaVina Harvey was appointed by the Branch President (and confirmed by the Executive Committee) as Chair of the Branch Environmental & Climate Justice Committee.
Miss Harvey is a King William / Baptist Liberty Community resident, a member of Baptist Liberty Baptist Church and works with the airlines as a traveling gate worker. From my time of knowing her, she has been an outspoken advocate of entrepreneurship and the environment. She has a beautiful vision of sustainable farming / gardening for King William that coincides with the Branch’s overall goals. She runs several businesses in this arena.
