Celebrity Apprentice's Omarosa comes home for Youngstown Urban League event

NILES

To empower an entire community, individuals must first empower themselves.

This was the message Omarosa Manigault-

Stallworth wanted to convey as the keynote speaker at the 81st Greater Warren-Youngstown Urban League Dinner.

Manigault-Stallworth, who appeared on the first season of the reality TV show “The Apprentice,” is also a known advocate for at-risk youths and the alleviation of homelessness in

the United States and abroad, serves as the international goodwill ambassador for the Haiti Support Project and promotes education efforts in West Africa.

The Greater Warren-Youngstown Urban League is in its 81st year of service as the premier voice of the Mahoning Valley’s minority communities. Its mission is to enable minorities to secure economic self-

reliance, parity, power and civil rights.

Manigault-Stallworth said she looked forward to returning to Youngstown, where she grew up.

The Rayen School graduate said the Mahoning Valley’s empowerment needs to

begin with its children.

She also mentioned her brother, Jack Manigault, who was shot and killed in his East Avondale Avenue home in October.
