Stand strong together

ASHA BELK: “Our mornings in Selma began with fellowship, an ode to the dedication to the well-being of others. As volunteers gathered to prepare for the day, it was hard to not miss the shadows that reflected a community determined to serve.”

Through the lens of photojournalist Asha Belk, meet the homeowners in Selma, Alabama, where MDS volunteers from Ohio repaired roofs and rebuilt homes after severe storms a year ago. In a community that played a significant role in the Civil

Rights Movement of the 1960s, resilience is visible.
