My journey with Leatherwood Matters began in 1999, when I proudly joined as an AmeriCorps VISTA volunteer. At the time, I was looking for a meaningful way to serve my community and use my energy and skills to make a lasting difference. What started as a year of national service quickly turned into a lifelong connection with a mission I deeply believe in.<br><br>During my initial VISTA service, my focus was on capacity building, helping the organization strengthen its infrastructure, build community partnerships, and create more sustainable programs for at-risk youth. I worked closely with leadership to develop systems for grant writing, volunteer coordination, and donor outreach, all while staying engaged with the daily needs of the children we served.<br><br>What set this experience apart for me was the balance between behind-the-scenes work and direct interaction with the youth. I was involved in mentoring, tutoring, organizing recreational activities, and simply being a consistent, caring adult presence. Over time, I saw firsthand how structure, empathy, and opportunity could change the trajectory of a young person’s life.<br><br>Even after my formal AmeriCorps term ended, I remained connected to Leatherwood Matters in various volunteer and advocacy roles. The values I learned there servant leadership, compassion, resilience, and community responsibility that have shaped my personal and professional path ever since.<br><br>Leatherwood Matters became more than a service site; it became a place that shaped my heart for youth advocacy, my approach to leadership, and my lifelong commitment to creating safe and empowering environments for others.<br><br>JAF<br>

<br>Horrible cursed place. I arrived in the U.S. after having 2 strokes in the Philippines, hoping Fellow Countrymen would help me as I had no place to stay. The founder Dave Nardone, categorized me as having only been in the Marines for a few minutes compared to him as I had only served 6 years. Even though I was a combat mos 0311 who had served in war. Desert Storm. David hated me because I informed him the the Freemasons, (He is a 3rd degree Freemason), is a Satanic Organization. I was only treated with hate after I informed him of that and after that, he and his staff only tried to figure out a way to push me out. I was greeted by his staff on day one with screaming at me to get my shirt on, like I was in boot camp...even though I only owned 3 shirts and they happened to all be in the washing machine at the time. I was also told that my Filipino wife was a Mail Order Bride by another staff member. I came close to punching his teeth out for that. We were forced to watch sermons from prosperity gospel preachers like Steven Furtick, a pastor who lives in a giant mansion even as the Bible commands to store your treasures in heaven and not on earth. The staff at Fellow Countrymen did not know how to handle a normal, college educated person without a drug addiction. I was the only person staying there who passed all their random drug tests. They could only handle a good obedient drug addict who was there for the free canned goods in the cupboards. Dave Nardone got into the Charity Business as a money grab...to make himself a millionaire. He told me with his own lips. He does not have a true heart for charity. He only seeks to elevate himself and earn 40000 dollars through each man that comes through his doors. He promised me...and my son...that he would give me a car. A week later, he gave that car to another man, because there was no opportunity to do a "Photo Op" with me. David Nardone carries the Judas Curse. He is not real charity. Fellow Countrymen MADE me homeless. They forced me into the forest to fend for myself...but I did just fine. I didnt need their fake charity. I bought a car within 6 months of living in the Forest. I worked everyday and saved up 25 thousand dollars to get back to the Philippines while I was homeless. They didnt help me. I would not donate to Fellow Countrymen if I were you. You are only lining Mr. Nardone's pockets. They are a wretched and cursed charity. My tent in the forest was a much better alternative. David Nardone and Fellow Countrymen never once treated me like an actual human. A father with kids waiting for me to get home. They treated me like pure garbage. Nardone is a liar...outright. Look at their official website. There are no bad reviews because he deletes them and blocks those of us who write reviews of bad experiences. He has no integrity. luckily he cant delete my review on Yelp. Nardone is a disgrace to my Marine Corps and so is Fellow Countrymen. They are in it for the millions in revenue. Look at the screenshot. Nardone says he wants to help homeless Vets, and lessen their chance of suicide? Nardone made me homeless...and he makes Vets feel like committing suicide. He is in the wrong business. <br> <br>This part written by my wife: <br> <br>Do you know who my husband is, who you kicked out on to the streets? My husband is a man of high honor that you will never know. You Mr. Nardone, do not even have the courage or strength to admit that you promised my husband and his son, that you were giving him the white SUV, that you gave to a different man a week later, because you couldnt get a Photo Op out of my husband. <br> <br>Do you want to know the level of honor my husband has? My husband rights his wrongs, he humbles himself, he fixes when he has wronged someone. My husband took a blank cassette tape from a classmate in high school because he didnt think it was a big deal. The classmate had cases of them, so he would not miss if 1 was taken. When my husband decided to live a righteous life, he attempted to amend the people he had wronged. At his 20 year high school reunion, he approached the classmate, told him he had taken the blank cassette, apologized, and gave the classmate a 50 dollar gift card to Target. <br> <br>You were blessed to have a man of my husbands honor staying at Fellow Countrymen, even though you treated him like garbage. <br> <br>You denigrated my husbands service, claiming he had only been in the Marines a few minutes compared to you? So the bullets aimed at my husband during war were less potent than the bullets you faced? <br> <br>My husband has suffered 2 service connected strokes AND a service connected heart attack from being exposed to burn pits and burning oil wells...but his war was only a few minutes compared to yours? My husband is a disabled Vet, but he is not disabled from PTSD like you and your staff. 100% of his disabilty is from afib, ischemic strokes, and asthma. All from chemical exposure. <br> <br>You have some nerve. You allowed your staff to call me a Mail Order Bride to my husbands face and you did nothing? You havent witnessed my husband in a fight. Your staff is very lucky. My husband and I have our grandparents both his and mine buried near each other in the same cemetary. I am no Mail Order Bride. How dare you denigrate another Marines wife...or his service. <br> <br>One day they will make a movie about what my husband endured to take care of our family. Being homeless for 2 years because of you and others. He is a great man. They will learn the name David Nardone as well. <br> <br>I have firsthand witnessed your lack of honor Mr. Nardone. You are despicable. May God have mercy on your lying, dishonorable soul. My message here? Do not support this man, or his charity.
