My Truth: Ignorance is costly

By: Cheryl Smith

We’re gearing up for the Don’t Believe the Hype Celebrity Bowl-a-thon on June 21, 2025. Talk about an action-packed day, check out our community calendar and you will see that there are so many activities to occupy your time, interests and resources.

Since 1995, I have invited you to Cheryl Smith’s Don’t Believe the Hype Celebrity Bowl-a-thon. Initially held at Don Carter’s West, today we are at Plano SuperBowl.

We are keeping this going because we have been able to provide scholarships to so many area students.

We haven’t had this year’s event and we’ve already donated almost $5,000 to help students who realize that a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

Which brings me to my truth.

There are people in this country who don’t believe that we should invest in education. If you think an education is too expensive to invest in, I can show you several cases where ignorance and miseducation have cost considerably more!

Why don’t you join me on July 21. I’m going to start the day at a political forum with Delta Sigma Theta, then I will run over to “Be OWT” with the students and alumni of Florida A&M University at noon, and then I will end up at Plano Super Bowl, raising money for our students.

This is a different revolution that may not be televised but it can be well financed!
