Marc Dorsey, two-time Grammy nominee, follows his heart
Singer, songwriter, producer Marc Dorsey has made a life long commitment to support the American Diabetes Association. Marc is always working on new ways to touch people through music, but outside of the entertainment industry he is a strong community leader. For over six years his individual efforts of donations, fundraisers, and personal appearances have made a huge impact on bringing awareness and education to young adults about diabetes. His motivation toward this cause stems from his personal life experiences.
Marc’s father William Dorsey, Sr. who is a strong role model and influence in his life, suffers from diabetes. Having owned and operated a construction company for over 20 years, he taught Marc to have a strong work ethic and to be passionate about everything he puts his mind too. Marc says, he is reminded daily of his father’s words, “you are your greatest expectation of yourself”. His most recent project was developed out of the sincere desire to help young people gain the values of hard work that were instilled in him at a young age.
It is through these and other life lessons he developed the Dorsey Enrichment Program (DEP) a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping youth live positive lives and to gain the knowledge, skills and abilities to work progressively and maintain self sufficiency in their careers. It is through his philanthropic efforts that Marc sees his accomplishments change lives near and far.
