President, Maria Madeline Project, Inc."We're committed to helping re-train baby boomers to find jobs in an economy that is shedding traditional manufacturing jobs," said Pastor Howard B.M. Fauntroy, III.

Pastor Fauntroy heads the one thousand member First Baptist Institutional Church in Detroit, a city that's seen it's share of economic hardship. A downsizing Big Three, decreasing property values, and a increase in unemployment and home foreclosures place the city at the bull's eye of the recession.

Boomers interested in signing up for classes can contact the church at (313) 838-0166 or by email at melfaun@yahoo.com .
