Today we’d like to introduce you to Tyran Eddington.
Hi Tyran , thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
How I started, i simply needed healthy habits and hobbies. I had recently got married prior to starting this organization and realized that I needed a better reason to justify me leaving the house all the time (lol) . But seriously I wanted to be the change I wanted to see . I was currently working for an organization as a community coordinator and quickly learned that , a lot of things I wanted to see happen wasn’t in our wheelhouse. Instead of keep coming up with ideas for the organization I worked for because they was getting turned down . I started my own organization to be able to address the other needs of the community. I had always been an entrepreneur so hopping out there wasn’t a challenge and I already had a real influence in the space so it wasn’t hard to connect well .
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It has been a smooth road so for , My only challenge has been financial resources but that’s just because they way I go about fundraising.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Dallas United for Good is on a mission to connect with Good people and do good things . We offer mentorship for teens , the TARP program which stands for Tackling A Real Problem where we assist Senior Citizens with minor exterior home repairs/ issues the keep them in compliance with the city of Dallas . Along with TMC which is our annual teen conference. What set us apart is our ability to connect and unite . We are the new leaders of this generation and our influence and impact is undeniable. I want readers to know that our team really do this out of their heart with only the intent to make a difference. We haven’t even applied for a grant we really been connecting with real people and pulling them together to support or mission. We building a self sustainable organization that will last even if the government and the corporations shut down . We are really backed by the people and have built a true community with in our organization.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
Success happens for me when I truly cannot take any credit for the work and impact that’s being done by Dallas United for Good .
