The Legacy Harvest Foundation was founded by Jerry Myers after several years of working with non-profit organizations and serving as President of an EMPLOYER COMMITTEE with the GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF LABOR. Founded on christian principles, the Legacy Harvest Foundation's goal is to decrease unemployment, strengthen economies, and empower communities. The Foundation launched its pilot program called Rebuilding Employment Dreams (R.E.D.) in fall 2012. The R.E.D. program prepares individuals who are unemployed by teaching strategies for today's job market and mental preparedness for career searches. The Foundation encourages those impacted by Rebuilding Employment Dreams to give back and share strategies of success allowing for the economy to be impacted.
