ROSE MARTIN, standing, is a mover and shaker when it comes to Operation Education, a project she founded to provide children living in low-income housing with opportunities to take educational trips to historical and cultural landmarks. One way that funds are raised for the trips are soul food dinners, for which she, the children and their parents do the cooking. Assisting her, from left, are Joey Bond, Annie Blair and Lynda Burrows.
