The Grand Traverse Region is a diverse area with so many
activities and industries. It’s also diverse because of the many
different ways of life within the community. Some are farmers while
others work in the many restaurants or office buildings.
Many though, are students in high school who are trying to provide for their families or parents struggling to just get by. Not everyone has the pleasure of lying on a boat during the summer swimming away the hours or taking long strolls through the many miles of trails while sipping a pumpkin spice latte.
There are great things about this area and the natural beauty is captivating, but the reality for many is daily struggle to make ends meet. I’m becoming more aware of families who struggle to feed their children and teenagers who are not privileged to enjoy their youth.
