“Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, ‘Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, “What are you doing for others?,’” said. Kimberly Burke-Thomas. “My greatest passion is helping others thrive. I love to be able to give back to people who not only need it, but the people who are intentionally working towards their greatness.
Kimberly Burke-Thomas is one of the 20 honorees under 40 who will be celebrated as The St. Louis American Foundation and Wells Fargo Advisors present the 5th Annual Salute to Young Leaders Thursday (Feb. 19) at The Four Seasons.
“I give back to others because people gave to me. I believe it is a cycle that I inherited and we must keep giving our time, resources, and love to others. That is why I am so passionate about inspiring people to turn their life goals into reality.”
Burke-Thomas offers more personal insight as part of the special series that will features each of this year’s young leaders on KMOX 1120 AM.
