I won LEDA's 2024 Alumni HonoreeHey KINfolk! I was selected as LEDA's 2024 Alumni Honoree! LEDA was the organization that helped get me into Princeton University back in 2013. This week they celebrated 20 years of helping high-achieving students gain admission to the nation's top colleges and supporting their success at these institutions. 11 years after being admitted into LEDA, I was honored with an award and gave a speech in front of 400 people at the Edison Ballroom in NYC. It's a full circle moment to receive this award from the very people who helped shape me into who I am today. The award says "Philomina Kane, for your inspirational leadership that truly embodies Excellence, Integrity, Compassion, and Community." I'm feeling really blessed and motivated to keep championing KIN Apparel's success through resilience, hard work, and faith. If you know any high school students, definitely tell them to apply to LEDA! Lastly, we raised over $203,000 in our crowdfunding campaign! We're doing a big push this month and plan to close it May 31st! If you haven't already, secure your investment in KIN!Talk soon.-Philomina Gabby has been following my journey since youtube and we finally met. She posted this on her Instagram story. lol
