In this episode of Keep it Wausome, I sit down with Jerel Austin Ballard. Ballard was the anchor of the morning show on WSAW Channel 7, and now lives in Milwaukee. Ballard started a foundation to provide scholarships to those with the potential to go to college but need some of the boost, because he got that help when he was going to school. He's got a cool story to tell and it was a blast interviewing him!
