MISSION & VISION STATEMENT

Storehouse Development was founded in 2024 by Sherman and Sadell Bradley. The CDC began as a response to the growing need for support services for disenfranchised and underserved individuals and families in our area. Over the years, we hope to expand our reach and impact, to serve hundreds and even thousands of individuals annually. 

While Storehouse Development 501(c)(3) is a newly established organization, the Bradleys have been committed community leaders for over 25 years in non-profit settings. They spearheaded the Hopefest Health and Education Festivals with the University of Cincinnati Allied Health, Christ College of Nursing, and other partners from 2012-2016. As VP of City Gospel Mission’s homeless shelter, Sherman served formerly incarcerated, addicted, and unhoused men, and initiated transitional housing, health and wellness, and job readiness training programs Sadell has served for five years as Strategic and Programs Director at MORTAR, a non-profit business incubator dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs from disenfranchised neighborhoods in Cincinnati and beyond. She is currently working on a doctoral project to assist individuals and families with financial literacy.

Sherman Bradley is the Executive Director  of Storehouse Development.
