Driven by her passion to unify and empower her sisters, Sister K started annual weekend sessions with her sisters and cousins in 2013. The impact of these sessions demonstrated a need to expand and gave birth to the Sister K Foundation Non-Profit Company (NPC) which was registered in 2020. The foundation is a sisterhood that aims to assist women in realizing their true worth by inspiring and empowering them to maximize their potential and fulfil their purpose.
