THE WHAT AND THE WHY….
GK Legacy Foundation was created in honor of our father (“GK”), who we sadly lost to cancer in 2018.
George was the epitome of perseverance and determination, and it is our mission to honor him in a way that represents those attributes. "Keep your chin up, kid" was his favorite thing to say whenever we faced adversity, and now we are using his words to inspire others.
We know college can be challenging for anyone, especially for adults returning to school while juggling jobs, family, and/or financial stress. We also know there are very few scholarships available for this under-served population, and we want to help fill that gap and encourage them to persevere..
Keep your chin up,
The Keown Family
