KAWS Memorial Scholarship: Our Why

Kenneth Wallace was an intellect with interests in several subjects. He was a lover of God and used his natural gift of music for worship and praise whenever the opportunity presented.  Kenneth was an advocate for the education and forward movement of the Black community, often participating in conversation and social gatherings surrounding social justice. A lover of people, he sought to preach, teach, and give God praise in every aspect of his life.
