“Giving back is an act of faith—trusting that what we place in the hands of love will be multiplied. It’s choosing compassion over comfort, service over convenience, and hope over despair, knowing that every act of kindness has the power to change a life.”
~Kennethia McKibben-Gay
📚 KD Strong Back-to-School Community Event
The KD Strong Foundation Back-to-School Event is our way of standing in the gap for families and reminding our children that they are supported, valued, and loved.
Each year, we come together to provide essential school supplies, resources, and encouragement to students and families as they prepare for a new academic year. This event is more than backpacks and notebooks — it’s about confidence, community, and hope.
What to Expect
🎒 Backpacks & school supplies
✂️ Community resources for families
💙 Encouraging atmosphere rooted in love and service
🤝 Volunteers and partners committed to youth success
Our goal is to alleviate the financial burden on families while empowering students to begin the school year feeling prepared, valued, and supported.
Our Mission in Action
Through the Back-to-School Event, KD Strong honors our commitment to youth development, education, and community uplift. Every child deserves a strong start — and together, we make that possible.
