"It's great to have those from so many backgrounds joining our coalition," says Cyrus A. Webb, Founder of The Write Stuff. Delaney was introduced to the project by Production Consultant Herschel Dixon, and was excited to come on board.
"Ced realizes the importance of giving back," says Dixon, "and he is always looking for ways to use his celebrity to make a difference."
The resume of Ced Delaney is an impressive one. He has performed in cities across America as well as Europe, and has hosted tours with the best of the best in comedy including Rickey Smiley, Cedric The Entertainer, Steve Harvey, and Dave Chappelle.
Delaney has also been co-host of several radio morning shows and is a regular guest on BET’s “Comic View”. while hosting monthly comedy nights at Workplay called The “Ced Delaney COMedy Nite”, and “Tickle Tuesdays” at Comedy Club Stardome.
In addition to his professional life, he is also devoted to giving back to the community, beginning the Be A Man Foundation, a mentoring program for teen males to help them become better men and productive citizens. The organization tackles areas of literacy, self worth, and community involvement. In addition to his work with the Be A Man Foundation, Ced is also very active with the Big Brothers program.
"Reading is everything," says Ced. "If you can't read, you can't function. How can you get where you're going without reading?" The Write Stuff Literacy Campaign couldn't agree more.
