Viva Morgan and her son started Friends of Wingate Park 13 years ago when her son was 19.
Morgan taught her son that residents are who drive change in a community. With help from volunteers, the organization runs a series of events.
The two say a large part of the neighborhood's success is due to them and others advocating for what the area needs.
"We have our food distribution program, we do a book reading series in the park. There's a lot of programs we do have and we need money to sustain it. They're important,” said Morgan.
People in Wingate Park say the area is full of people who look out for each other.
Morgan is hoping to expand the organization’s programming and is accepting community donations.
