Janet Ayers | TennTalks | Ep.1
This week on TennTalks, Jesse sits down with Janet Ayers, president of the Ayers Foundation Trust, for an inspiring conversation about leadership, community, and transformation. Janet shares her remarkable journey from growing up in rural Tennessee to leading one of the state’s most impactful nonprofits. She reflects on her early career in healthcare administration, the challenges of being a young woman in leadership, and how her passion for education guided her to make a lasting difference in the lives of rural students. Together, they explore the Ayers Foundation’s mission to break down barriers to education and why personalized support is key to student success. They also discuss the foundation’s latest initiative, "Come Home Tennessee," which aims to bring young graduates back to their rural communities to boost local economies. Lets build a better future for Tennessee together! The Ayers Foundation Trust is dedicated to improving the quality of life of rural Tennesseans through education, conservation, and social welfare. We help students remove barriers, access quality education, and earn a degree or credential leading to a prosperous life. Get Involved with the Ayers foundation - .
