As the CEO of The WRK Group, which includes The Warehouse, REACH Riverside and the Kingswood Community Center, Logan Herring Sr. has relied on others to guide him to success. Now he’s paying it forward. He began working in Wilmington’s Riverside neighborhood in 2016 as the Kingswood Community’s executive director, and there realized that the community needed more support and resources. Two years later, The WRK Group was created to accelerate redevelopment in the community and surrounding areas of northeast Wilmington. Today, the organization includes 75 employees and boasts over $12 million in annual revenue that’s aimed at creating opportunities to empower area residents.
