Presentation Transcript

  1. A Brief History on Heather McPherson Heather McPherson was a straight shooter, and graduated four years later with high honors and a successful collegiate sports career under her belt. Now back in her hometown of Detroit, Heather McPherson has become a driving force in anti-literacy campaigns, homeless assistance programs and animal adoption shelters. Her activism and support of two children are supplemented by her work as the bestselling author of the Dr. Bob series.

  2. Heather McPherson’s Success is Driven by Competitive Nature Growing up a sports fan in Detroit, Heather McPherson loved following the Detroit Lions football team, as well at the Detroit Tigers baseball team. She went to games whenever she could, however for most of her younger years, high ticket prices had gotten in the way of her ability to see her favorite sports live. Inspired by the poverty in her neighborhood, McPherson chose volunteering at soup kitchens and animal shelters over income-based jobs when she was old enough to work, a choice she thought would further hinder her ability to see her favorite teams in action.

  3. Heather MacPherson was a Volunteer Before Middle School Growing up in a rough area of Detroit, Heather McPherson passed by homeless people and stray pets as she walked to school every day. It was not long before she started pondering ways she could improve life in her community, even in her capacity as a young elementary school child with no professional experience.

  4. Heather McPherson, a Single Supermom Heather soon learned that her service was inspiring more people than she had thought. An avid sports fan growing up, Heather’s father used to take her and her brothers to Detroit Tigers games until he lost his job and could no longer afford the tickets. Heather’s co-volunteers learned about her situation after almost a year of working with her, and it just so happened to be around the same time the Tigers, as well as the Detroit Lions, started donating tickets to those particular non-profits. Soon enough, Heather had the means to treat her family to sporting events, and another reason to keep volunteering.
