1/6
I am excited to see Kevin Jones running for Councilman for the 5th District in Detroit. He is deserving of the position. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Kevin for the past 40 years in many capacities all with high levels of trust and confidence, especially within the community.
I can say with certainty he is a person of integrity as well as a hard worker. I couldn’t be happier with his work ethic and expectation of excellence from the people within the community.
Kevin has had a compassion for working within the community for many years. He works with the young adults as well as helps the elderly daily. He has demonstrated his loyalty to helping Detroit’s youth by remaining dedicated to the community, by coaching youth basketball and mentoring. He’s also constantly beautifying the community, building parks, having picnics, movie nights, passing out turkeys during the holidays and assisting the elderly with city services.
I am highly confident and believe that Kevin would be a great fit for Councilman of the 5th District in Detroit.
Sincerely,
Carman Bland
