The impact of giving back.
From a young age, Kelvin was taught by his mother, Wanda Sims, the importance of building connections, showing empathy, and working together. She emphasized the significance of service and community involvement, frequently taking him with her to volunteer at local events. These formative experiences deepened his appreciation for community service, and it is this very ethos that the KLB Legacy Foundation program aims to cultivate in its scholars.
Dream it.
These experiences help our Scholars understand the impact of philanthropy and the importance of social responsibility. This program emphasizes the emotional and ethical dimensions of giving back.
Move it.
By participating in various service projects and mentorship programs, KLBLF Scholars develop a deeper appreciation for the challenges faced by their community. Scholars engage in reflective discussions about the motivations behind charitable acts and the long-term effects of their contributions.
Build it.
These hands-on activities cultivate essential skills such as teamwork, communication, and leadership. Scholars learn to collaborate with diverse groups, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose. This not only enhances their personal growth but also prepares them for future endeavors, whether in higher education or their professional careers.
