Chingy For Change Foundation

In September 2003, The Chingy For Change Foundation was formed. Founding members were Howard E. Bailey Jr., Vernita Crawford, and LaToya May-Turner. The foundations day to day operations are run by Chingy's mom, Vernita Crawford. The overall goal is to help youth, so that they will not be lost to negative forces outside their control. We want youth to realize their full potential and have a full understanding of what they are capable of achieving in life.We want to reach children at different stages of their lives, to have a positive impact, and ensure their continued success throughout life. The founding members aspire to inspire youth all across the St. Louis Community and beyond. If we can help one child along the way in our quest for excellence then we have carried out our mission. The C.F.C.F. intends to continue this mission by providing scholarships to underprivileged youth, sponsor toy drives, feed the homeless, give school supplies and what ever else we can do to help the youth of our community.Founder: Howard Bailey Jr., Founder/CEO: Vernita Crawford, Co-Founder: LaToya May-Turner,
