Canton, Ohio- Jim Tressel, president of Youngstown State University and head coach of The Ohio State University 2002 National Champion football team will be the featured speaker at the Men’s Challenge Fundraising Kick-Off Dinner, March 12 at the McKinley Grand Hotel in downtown Canton.
Men’s Challenge is a Christ-based 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization that addresses root causes of poverty by assisting “unemployable” men to achieve sustainable employment.
Now celebrating their third year of existence, Men’s Challenge has had over 750 men participate in their program. Originating in Alliance the impact of Men’s challenge was expanded last year when they opened a new office in Canton. The response has been phenomenal, said Dustin Burgess, who is the
2015 Fundraising Campaign Chairman for Men’s Challenge. “Men’s Challenge is doing all they can to assist men to fulfill their God given role as providers and protectors of their families,” he added.
