Sunlight, Growth, and the Soul of Wake Forest

I was born and raised in Wake Forest. My family has called this land home since before there was a Wake Forest to be born in. My ancestors founded the Bute County Committee of Safety in 1775. Their cemetery is outside Youngsville. That is why this work matters.
