We are honored to announce our founder and executive director, Ismael Hernandez, was the cover feature for The Corridor in July.  This in-depth feature article chronicles the programs and mission that has been developed through the years at the Freedom & Virtue Institute under he passionate guidance of Mr. Hernandez.

As explanation of the institute’s name, Hernandez notes that in the Greek, “virtue” is not a term of morality but means “excellence of all kinds.” And he argues that for a person to be successful and to contribute to society, freedom and excellence are inextricable.

Please see the article below in its entirety.  The Corridor proudly serve residents and businesses in Fort Myers, Florida, directly off the Daniels, Metro, Plantation, Six Mile and Treeline thoroughfares. Since mailing their first issue in August 1999, their goal has always been to create and foster community spirit. They love connecting people through what they do, and highlighting the positive people, places and things that make our Southwest Florida home so special.
