Background

About Khadija Kamara

I have always attributed my commitment to helping others to a quote by the African Proverb that states, “If you think you are too small to make a difference, spend a night with a mosquito.” This quote has been inspirational to me throughout my life, and, in my experience, it has been instrumental in my development as a person. It has reminded me that even the smallest of actions can make a difference and that every one of us has the potential to effect change in our communities. I have a bachelor's degree in social work from Louisiana State University and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in the same field from Saint Louis University. My core competencies include non-profit management, organizational and community development. I have a passion for empowering and supporting marginalized and underrepresented communities, and I have developed strong skills in communication, collaboration, and cultural competence. I am eager to contribute to the mission and vision of your organization, and to bring diverse perspectives and experiences to your team.
