Gus Macker and Cheryl's House of Hope
From drug dealing to community healing, Cheryl Beverly has turned her life around by surrendering to God and allowing Him to use her passion, empathy and experiences to heal the women and children of her community. Our original discussion with Cheryl was April 29, 2021. Now we discuss with Cheryl how she is bringing together the community by helping sponsor the Gus Macker 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament on the streets of downtown Chillicothe, Ohio during Macker’s 50th anniversary. This will also help shine the light on the other work that Cheryl does in the community serving the less fortunate and providing transitional rehabilitation and housing for women 15 or older and their children.
