The KW Cares Board & Team
Board of Directors
“In 2003, when one of our ALC members spoke to Mo Anderson about us REALLY coming together with resources for sudden unforeseeable catastrophic event, she and our leadership team jumped into action. KW Cares was granted 501(c)(3) nonprofit status in 2003. Serving on the KW Cares Board of Directors since its inception has been a complete honor, and for me, like getting a master’s degree in outstanding leadership.
I was able to witness how our founding Board Chairs, Mo Anderson and Mary Tennant, moved us forward dynamically, with a huge vision and step-by-step processes, to become this outstanding KW Cares nonprofit that exists today. We, as a business family, joined our resources and efforts, stood close by to learn what was needed, and then moved quickly into action. KW Cares lets our people know they are not alone. I have seen some of the most generous giving, true and sincere servant leadership, and care throughout the entire U.S. and Canada via our supporters. We are all united. The way we donate money, resources, time, and our love to those in need defines us. I love us.”
