In the heart of DC, one man’s journey from incarceration to community activism is making waves. Meet Ricky Bryant, the founder of “Street Line DC,” a grassroots nonprofit dedicated to curbing youth violence and providing support to at-risk youth in our city.

Having experienced the challenges of incarceration firsthand, Ricky’s passion for change is deeply rooted in his own personal journey. Determined to break the cycle of violence and provide hope for a brighter future, he founded Street Line DC with a mission to empower at-risk youth and create pathways to success.

At Easterns Automotive Group, we recognize the power of local heroes like Ricky who are driving positive change in our neighborhoods. Inspired by Ricky’s unwavering commitment to his community, we were honored to surprise him with a $2200 donation to support his vital work.

This donation will enable Street Line DC to expand its outreach efforts, providing essential resources, mentorship, and preventive programs to youth in need. Together, we’re fostering a culture of empowerment and resilience, ensuring that every young person in our city has the opportunity to thrive.
