Drawing from personal experiences growing up in Decatur, Drew understands the impact of these organizations firsthand. It was within the walls of the library where he discovered his passion for technology, reading, and learning. The Boys & Girls Club instilled in him values of activity, friendship, and positive decision-making. Bellmont High School provided Drew with a sense of identity and responsibility, shaping him into the leader he is today.

With Drew's background in teaching, video marketing, PR, coupled with his active involvement in Bellmont High School, Boys & Girls Club, and Adams County Public Library, the Derengowski Foundation is uniquely positioned to identify and address community needs effectively.
