Peace Family and Welcome Back to The Foundation Podcast! On this special edition, we catch up with Camden, NJ native and recent Business Administration Major, Corey Henderson. Corey received his business degree at Monmouth University and possesses incredible expertise in the business world which includes a stint managing a fitness gym in Asbury Park, NJ. However, on this episode Corey Henderson talks little about himself and more about his late friend and fellow Foundation Podcast alum, Darvin Henderson.
In December of 2021, tragedy struck the Trenton, Ewing, and Monmouth University communities when Darvin Henderson suddenly passed away due to an asthma attack. This left the organization that Darvin had started, Playmakers Athletics, an organization based in the Trenton/Ewing area dedicated to helping young men with sports and academics with a void for leadership. Corey, who had developed a close friendship with Darvin , who was also featured on episode 21 of The Foundation, and decided that the legacy that Darvin started should not die with him.
Corey kept the legacy running as he was able to generate enough money through the selling of Darvin's Playmakers' brand and donating 100% of the proceeds into a scholarship fund for kids involved with the Playmaker Athletics. The Book Scholarship event will be held on June 11th, 2022 at Caldwater Park from 2pm-5pm! In addition to speaking about carrying the torch with Playmakers Athletics, Henderson also provides listeners with key business administration tools in how to run a business! See if there is anything helpful you can take from Corey to add to your Foundation! Always remember, Keep Building Family! Peace.
