donald’s story
an inspirational Story of strength, courage and determination
Cease For Peace founder, Donald Williams, has had his share of life’s battles. As a young man raised in LA’s inner city, life was tough, the streets were rife with warfare, and mentorship was nowhere to be found. Donald fought hard to stay connected and not give into fears and discouragement. Miraculously along the way, he found brotherly support, love and caring, which allowed him to emerge as a victor over life’s adversities. Through his community-based non-profit, Cease For Peace, Donald is committed to giving back by mentoring young men from the inner city, as he offers them a truly deserved opportunity to flourish and succeed.
