A full house enjoyed a great lunch and the energy of keynote speaker Brian Burley. Burley is the CEO of Burley & Company Enterprises, named a 2015 BMe Community Leader for the work he is diligently doing within Pittsburgh to promote more positive imagery to Black Pittsburgh’s future generations. Howard Russell, KSEF Board Chair, says each year they spend significant time conducting face-to-face interviews with the students who were the finalists and many other candidates. “I can tell you that based on our interactions with these young college-bound students I rest much easier knowing that our future resides in their hands.”
KSEF is also busy developing young men through their Guide Right Leadership and Development Program. This is an academic and personal development program for male students in ninth through twelfth grade. The program reaches out to young African American males in the community as a means of developing future leaders of tomorrow. Applications for 2018 scholarships will be available Sept. 1.
