About Us
OUR HISTORY
In 2003, compelled to help bright first-generation college students whose academic success was hindered by limited resources, Kim and Tony Thompson established the Kwame Foundation. 20 years later, the Foundation has established endowed scholarships at nearly 30 institutions, while also supporting organizations that help to enhance the educational landscape within this region and throughout the United States.
Our Mission
Today, as the philanthropic arm of Kwame Building Group, Inc., Kwame Charitable Foundation strives to change the trajectory of the lives of motivated young adults. College exposure and endowed scholarships are the primary avenues by which we remove barriers that can impede success. We look towards a future that is more hopeful for scholars who deserve of the opportunity to reach their full potential.
