Today’s guest, Craig Glover, was raised in a community much like those in the Palm Beach County community he now serves. His experience growing up in an economically challenged area has helped him recognize his many blessing, and to survive several life challenges. Currently, Craig is excited to serve others as the Executive Director of Northend RISE.

RISE is a resident-driven, family and systems based non-profit movement, dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty for the residents of the Northend, Coleman Park and Pleasant City communities. RISE works to improve quality of life by focusing on education, employment, housing and wellness..


Mr.Glover  is a builder and community servant. He’s also a serial entrepreneur, has over 20 years of experience in executive healthcare leadership roles, helped build multiple billion dollar brands and specializes in start-ups. Craig earned his B.S. degree from Florida A&M University and M.B.A. from the University of Miami. His civic involvement includes: steering committee member of Healthier Neighbors; member of Leadership Palm Beach County Class of 2019; Advisor  to the APOLLO National Institute of Health study and; he was recognized as a 2018 Everyday Hero by the Black and Hispanic Chambers of Commerce. He and his late wife Bonnie were married for 36 years and produced two wonderful sons, Matthew and Benjamin. Kevin and I are big fans of the work Mr. Glover does, and we know you will be after this podcast. As always stay tuned after for our takeaways.
