DONNA C. YOUNG grew up in Compton, California in a middle-class family. She is a proud mother of one son, and grandmother of two amazing grandchildren. Early on in her professional journey, she was once a prominent professional roller derby skater for the elite Los Angeles Thunderbirds. This journey introduced her to a platform where her global legacies span both domestically and internationally. Upon stepping out of the entertainment limelight, she began several lustrous careers in real estate, financial institutions, cosmetology, telecommunications, and the United States Postal Service. Donna's journey continued on in a quest to seek a closer walk with God. With a hunger, desire, and passion for the Word of God, Donna knew God had a calling on her life. In the Fall of 1989, she answered the call by furthering her Christian education through Bethany Christian Bible Training Institution in Los Angeles, California, where she was certified in Systematic Christian Education on June 28, 1992, and the Southern California School of Ministry in Inglewood, California, where she received her Bachelor degree in Theology on June 4, 1995. She is an affiliate of both the Cottonwood Church in Los Alamitos, California, and the Long Beach Campus located in Long Beach, California, where she currently serves on several outreach and community ministries. God's amazing grace has delivered Donna through a supernatural life-changing experience like no other as she reconnects with God, His Word, and biblical principles. On June 9, 2019, Donna re-dedicated her life to Christ. Cottonwood Church has become a spiritual safe haven for her to connect and bond through the Word of God, Outreach Ministries, and small community groups. In hopes of becoming a bondservant to others, Donna is expecting God to bring a supernatural explosive experience in her life as she goes into the world to share Jesus and her personal story to others.
