“Education is one thing no one can take away from you.” —Elin Nordegren

Colonel Kevin John McAleese was an advocate for higher education. He believed in partnering with organizations and decision makers who could aid in providing the means and access to those seeking greater endeavors through the footprints of their own unique journey.

Kevin was a long-time volunteer with the Miss Philadelphia organization/Miss America Organization. In 1997, he assumed the role of Executive Director of the Miss Philadelphia Scholarship Organization. In this capacity, he advocated for the empowerment of women through education and served as a valued mentor to young women participants raising over $150,000 in scholarship funds awarded over decades of service..  

In keeping with this legacy, The KJM foundation has given upwards of $50k in financial assistance towards college tuition or associated scholastic expenses.Past KJM Scholarship recipients are applying their awards to degrees in the fields of law, medicine, journalism, business and entertainment. 

We are continuing to pour into the legacy of our Glioblastoma Families by expanding our scholarship arm to the children of Glioblastoma sufferers. Glioblastoma will not rob these students from the legacy of their loved ones who have faced or succumbed to the battle of this disease.
