This week’s Hometown Hero, presented by the O. Max Gardner Foundation, is Andrew Taylor-Troutman.
Taylor-Troutman is the author of “Little Big Moments” on Chapelboro.com and the pastor at Chapel in the Pines Presbyterian Church. They’ve teamed up with a national nonprofit to raise money to help erase medical debt for local residents. Undue Medical Debt buys medical debt that hospitals have already written off. Taylor-Troutman and his church set a goal to raise $20,000, enough to erase the debt for hundreds of Chatham County residents. Thanks to his leadership, they raised over $22,000.
