Gwyn Rush, who graduated from Columbus High School, is an international relations major at Agnes Scott College in Decatur, GA. She’s also the public relations coordinator for Metro Atlanta Youth Energy Corps.

MAYE Corps is  a youth-led environmental justice organization in Atlanta. In the broad field of environmental justice, MAYE Corps focuses on energy equity, which is the fair distribution of the burdens and benefits of energy production and consumption.

The MAYE Corps mission, Gwyn says, “is to work with local low-income communities of color, especially Black and Latinx communities, to make homes more energy efficient.” That, in turn reduces energy bills and greenhouse gas emissions.

This service will be available on our YouTube Channel on Sunday morning, July 26. Our campus remains closed to help slow the spread of COVID-19. We’ll continue to offer services on YouTube until Sunday, Sept. 6, when we are tentatively scheduled to return to Grace Fellowship Hall.
