The Community Foundation is pleased that our Program Officer, Blair Lumpkins, has been selected to participate with the Middle Border Forward Initiative. Blair joined the Foundation staff in May, 2012 and is a graduate of Chatham High School and Longwood University.

More than 115 residents of Danville, Pittsylvania County and Caswell County applied and 50 were chosen to lead in the creation of a regional vision with a new culture of regional cooperation. These “50 Under 50,” or Middle Border Forward Fellows, represents the next two generations of diverse leaders that will move the community onward to success.
