I have always been an active person even as a child, I loved running around the neighborhood with friends, riding my bike mile upon mile, then when I was in my super early 20's I was rollerblading up to 13 miles a day! Then I met my husband! lol My Night and Shining Armor! We started spending so much time together that I completely forgot about exercising. Then shortly after that I landed my dream job...which also entailed 50 plus hours of work a week, a few years later we got married (my husband and I, not my job and I....just making sure you’re paying attention), then the kids came one kid for the next three years. So now I am a stay at home mom for three (may I say) super adorable boys! My oldest JUST turned 3 and the kids are crazy, who knew they would have THIS much energy! My 4 month old has cow protein and soy intolerance so I have had to eliminate both from my diet. That basically translates to nothing that’s pre-made or prepackaged, which we shouldn’t be eating anyway. I believe there is a certain level of fitness that every mom is at because she’s pushing a stroller all over town, carrying laundry up and down the stairs, picking up the kids and cleaning up the messes left behind! But for me I wanted MORE (don’t we all!!) I wanted more energy, I wanted to eat better than mac-n-cheese, hot dogs, chicken nuggets, pizza and most of all I wanted my family to eat better than this too! I fell we are ALL WORTH IT!!

In 2003 Anthony and Kim Thompson started the Kwame Foundation. The Kwame Foundation is a non –profit organization that provide young people an opportunity to learn, grow, and become professionals in their chosen careers. To accomplish our mission the Kwame Foundation provides financial assistance, educational mentorships, internship opportunities, and training in careers consistent with those needed to compete in a changing environment. Although we serve students of all races, our target is minority students pursuing post-secondary and graduate degrees who are bright, talented, high-achieving individuals that would not otherwise have an opportunity for higher education. One of the principles upon which Kwame Foundation was founded was to provide opportunities for growth, development and leadership to young professionals. As an extension of that principle – and in alignment with our holistic approach to sustainability – KWAME supports various education and mentorship focused organizations. In addition, through the Kwame Foundation, we endow scholarships at various institutions of higher learning across the country in order to assist in removing the financial barrier that exists for many minority and first generation college students.
