“Reggie has a great passion for serving and leading his family, being a mentor to the kids in the community, and being an ambassador for the Jesus Christ team! His ability to relate to the youth and parents through his experiences has been a blessing to his community and our country! I had the pleasure of being one of his mentors and his willingness to learn from others is on full display today. He is paying it forward which is our calling for Christ.”

Former NBA Basketball Player,
Current Head Coach of the Detroit Pistons
“Reg is as conscientious and intentional with his family, friends, strangers, and in particular the youth of our world. From the first time I met him, I knew that he had a heart for people led by his strong faith and a desire to live it out in his vocation and service to society. He may look up to me as a big brother, but the feeling is mutual. He is certainly someone that I would trust with my own kids. I don’t know many people that live out their faith in service to others like Reg.”

Dr. Reggie Wright exceeded all expectations. It was clear that Reggie put his heart and soul into making the discussion moving and meaningful. Reggie’s impact has extended beyond that one day, and I am certain it will continue to resonate within us for a long time to come."

“The energy that Dr. Wright brought to our convocation was amazing. I think our educators saw his compassion, and he kept it relevant. It was so easy to relate to what he was saying, and it inspired our entire staff to take his "nuggets" and easily apply them to our job.
Peter Kulbacki
“I wanted to take a moment to thank you- and comment on your presentation to our CareTeam this morning. You’re a truly gifted speaker, and I think it was a very worthwhile exercise for the staff. Your presentation really covered the spectrum in my opinion, and I felt your message “connected” with much of the staff.”
Debra Miller
"Dr. Reggie Wright presented a riveting workshop entitled "Allergic to Average". His passion for students at large was not only evident but contagious. He gave a much needed refresher for our "why" and every educator needs an opportunity to glean from his expertise."
