Bio: Fredric Almond, Sr.

At age eleven, Fredric Almond, Sr., had to face a horrific event that left him on the floor bleeding from being stabbed thirty-nine times. The situation, as you can imagine, changed his entire life as a young boy. With courage, perseverance, and willingness, he overcame the scar.

Fredric says, “I currently work within the community and local churches, encouraging young, middle aged and older people about not giving up hope and explaining to them that their scar is the reason why they are still alive; reminding them that they are alive to fulfill their God given purpose.”
