"When we contacted Drakeford, Scott, & Associates for assistance with a request for funding from the City of Durham that was due in four weeks, Dr. Drakeford politely reviewed the materials and agreed to work with us. Teaming up with Drakeford & Associates was the best experience; they are thorough and concise. Dr. Drakeford has a contagious winning attitude and that attitude translated into a winning proposal for $341,142.00"- Ms. Brenda Ruffin, ACRA of Durham
