OUR TEAM

I’m Bobby B. Clark, CEO of It Starts With Me, a nonprofit organization driven by purpose and passion. I’ve always had a knack for multitasking and building strong relationships with stakeholders, and my background has blessed me with countless opportunities in team building, leadership, and community engagement.

I was born in Cheraw, South Carolina, and raised in Laurinburg, North Carolina. My journey so far has sharpened my communication and conflict management skills, helping me thrive in diverse, multi-generational spaces where flexibility and empathy matter.

I got my start in the construction industry as a carpenter apprentice for a commercial contracting company. Thanks to my high standards and strong motivation, I soon transitioned into the role of Superintendent, where I gained hands-on experience managing active construction projects.

With over 35 years of experience in construction, I’ve learned that success—just like a solid building—comes from following through to the very end. I truly believe that charity begins at home. My goal has always been to serve and uplift low-income and disadvantaged families in our communities and beyond.

I know that real change starts with me. I lead with the belief that caring is sharing, and I pour my energy into improving the well-being of individuals, children, and families—locally and around the world. Communication and a positive attitude help me navigate challenges and support those around me with purpose and heart.

Join us on this journey to create a positive impact on society
