Bill & Lisa Bright visited our club and Lisa shared some interesting information on behalf of Trussville City Council and The Will Bright Foundation. Thank you Jim Corey for inviting our special guests.

Lisa Bright, Councilmember for Trussville, summarized the most popular concerns Trussville residents have as the three T’s: traffic , trains, and trash.

Lisa shared her family’s painful story about the loss of her son, Will, as a result of drug addiction, and how that loss was the beginning of the Will Bright Foundation. The story of Bill and Lisa Bright’s son is painful, but they have turned pain into purpose with the Will Bright Foundation which is making a difference in many lives.
