Advocacy and Community Involvement
Beyond her journalism career, which is also a part of Kim’s lifetime achievement, is that she is very much into the field of breast cancer awareness. Which came about from a very personal place of her sister’s diagnosis, which has in turn made her a key player in the promotion of early detection and regular self-exams. Also, a face of many health-based initiatives which she is a part of, and also does a great job at emceeing health and women’s issues-related community events.
