RJ Brown, CEO and Founder of DowUrk Inc., sits with Darci Lourigan to discuss the latest happenings with the Non-Profit. Two generations of Upward Bound. One mission: do the work. In this conversation, RJ Brown — Assistant Director of Upward Bound at Southeastern Louisiana University, founder of DowUrk Inc., and owner of RJBrown Photography LLC — sits down with Darci Lourigan, a senior Communications major at SELU and Upward Bound alumna preparing to graduate this December. They go deep on what the TRIO program actually does for first-generation, low-income students, why federal attacks on these programs are short-sighted, and how DowUrk is building a $52M Sports & Leadership Park in Tangipahoa Parish to give the next generation what most of us had to figure out on our own. This isn’t a feel-good interview. It’s a blueprint. #dowurk #louisiana #entrepreneurship #smallbusiness #ecosystem

Flashback to RJ speaking with @teamtangipahoa Councilmen about the purposed plan for the DowUrk Sports & Ladership Park during the community land use zoning event.

When there’s 52 Million dollars on the line you strategize differently and daily. #DowUrk #Sports and #Leadership #Park Check out the project. More than just a sports complex it’s a 569-acre community campus where sports tourism is the anchor tenant for an integrated economic development district that includes conservation, education, entrepreneurship, and media.

Had the honor of attending the Executive Director Exclusive Coffee & Connection event at the @la.oldgovernorsmansion hosted by the @laalliancefornonprofits #dowurk #louisiana #entrepreneurship #smallbusiness #ecosystem

God said don’t stop keep going and #DowUrk. Yesterday’s @teamtangipahoa council meeting provided much needed insights as to what’s going on within our parish. Continue to follow us for more updates and spread the word about the DowUrk Sports & Leadership Park.
