How a church in North Linden got involved in the job fair
The new Salem Baptist Church in North Linden was another college fair, career and community partner.

“Every day we try to wake up and understand how the church can use its resources and relationships to create a connected community,” said Adam Troy, engagement manager for the Community of Caring Development Foundation, the branch church nonprofit.

“Here, in this context, it’s very enriching. We have a number of students here who are very successful but who have just never been introduced to the HBCU experience. Today it is about access and exposure.

2021 was held on Saturday at the French Field House phone number library on the Ohio State University campus.
Adam Troy and his brother Eric both attended Morehouse College, an Atlanta HBCU.

Eric Troy, founder and CEO of Eficionado, a brand management company, said it was important to have OSU as a partner.

“We have so many people of color who don’t even see the Ohio State campus,” he said. “And so having that kind of exposure is pretty cool.”

Representatives from the rival Central State and Kentucky State were also on hand to speak with the students.

“We have a lot of exciting things going on,” said Lauren Young, registration specialist at Central State. “We have a brand new president. He has a lot of great incentives for students. Right now we have free books for all students all year round. We have a lot of different scholarships available, and today we are just here to spread this news and beat KSU.
