The Dennie Welsh Business & Ethics Urban/Suburban Initiative

The Dennie Welsh Business & Ethics Urban/Suburban Initiative

A Community Development Initiative of The Country Club of Life


VISION - To inspire then develop potential young urban entrepreneurs through collaboration with suburban executives and mentoring acquired through this initiative.


MISSION - To witness these youths emerge as vibrant contributors to society as they enter commerce grounded in vocational, financial, ethical, and moral accountabilities.


The purpose of The Dennie Welsh Business & Ethics Urban/Suburban Initiative is dedication to the educational and vocational growth of at-risk children, and inspiring through promoting highly ethical living and excellence. This initiative will target high-risk children in the county initially. Some of the initiative’s components include life coaching for youth in the areas of skill development, financial basics, business basics, business development and reaching out to others who are where they were.


This initiative’s design combines the knowledge and skills of suburbia with the rigorous faith and personal transparency of the urban community. It brings Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc. to a culture that may never see their state college. In essence, it’s about rigorous honesty combined with abandoned faith leading to a virtual degree earned from the University of The Have-Nots from which suburbia could benefit from attending a semester or two. Together these develop a unity of cultural collaboration which develops a complete people lacking in nothing. We build upon the discipline, ethics, and excellence in Dennie Welsh’s life and upon the philosophy most high-risk families experience in parallel in the lives of suburbia, i.e., seeing one another as one, with (while not identical) multiple and interrelated life challenges. These multifaceted challenges require a comprehensive approach of excellence that recognizes and, most importantly, identifies with “haves versus have nots” lives.
