SHON BROWN

Roxbury/North Dorchester NOC

​

Shon heard about ABCD through the outreach ministry at Hillsong Church Boston. His goal was to impact the community positively and be a blessing to others. Instead, Shon found himself, “blessed by the love, warmth, and kindness that I am met with each time I drop off a delivery.” He considers the staff at ABCD Roxbury/North Dorchester Neighborhood Opportunity Center and their clients like family and looks forward to each conversation and visit, including a client that he fondly refers to as the prayer warrior.

He is director of band and orchestra at F.A. Day Middle School in Newton, and teaches the drumlines at Belmont High School and Acton Boxborough Regional High School. Volunteering on the Hillsong Church and City Hope teams that deliver groceries to nearly 40 clients monthly is his favorite activity. 

Shon is truly honored to be named an ABCD Community Hero and considers everyone who serves on staff with ABCD as heroes.
