Pillars

Access to Education

Lack of access or awareness are roadblocks we fight in every arena. KMD continues to source information as well as provide financial support to young achievers.

Inclusion

It’s our belief, we are not monolithic. We believe there’s value in sharing our differences whether they’re visible or hidden, an individual thought process or group dynamic, or cultural or socioeconomic layers. We support environments that foster academic excellence, creativity, understanding, leadership, and innovation.

Empowerment & Leadership

Anything can be accomplished with skill and confidence. We support educators, mentors, and community leaders and programs that take an active interest in the success of youth.
