Our story
Long before I became a mother, I was an auntie.
After the loss of my brother, I found purpose in pouring love, guidance, and encouragement into the children around me. Those experiences helped me discover my passion for supporting young people and helping them realize their potential.
When my son, Kamali, was born, that passion grew even stronger. As a single mother, I have faced challenges, celebrated victories, and learned lessons that continue to shape who I am today. Through every season of life, Kamali has been my inspiration and my motivation. No matter what obstacles come my way, I remind myself of one thing: Kamali is watching, learning, and growing.
That mindset became the foundation for Kamali Kares.
The Kamali Kares logo holds a special meaning. The heart is formed by both of our hands mine and Kamali’s symbolizing love, connection, and the impact we can make when we come together to care for others.
As I continue through life, I want Kamali to see the importance of giving back, serving others, and creating opportunities for those around us. I want him to know that if a seat is not available at the table, you can create your own. If the opportunity does not exist, you can build it. Your vision matters.
I also want other children to experience what every child deserves: a safe space, positive support, meaningful connections, and opportunities to have fun while learning and growing.
At Kamali Kares, we are committed to supporting, uplifting, and empowering children and families through educational enrichment, life skills development, mentorship, and community engagement.
Our goal is to create experiences that build confidence, encourage growth, and remind every child that they are valued, capable, and loved.
Because when children are supported, encouraged, and empowered, there is no limit to what they can achieve.
Love. Empower. Inspire.
