Kymbria Young

Executive Director

Kymbria Young earned a B.A. in English from Spelman College in 2014 and an M.S. in Integrated Marketing Communications from Roosevelt University in 2016. Her professional experience includes corporate positions at numerous Fortune 500 companies including JPMorgan Chase and PepsiCo. Additionally, she has international work experience in Accra, Ghana. Though Kymbria’s corporate experience was critical to her professional development, in 2016 she decided to leave corporate America and pursue her true passion for community development and social activism. With this choice, she launched Season to Soar nonprofit organization. In addition to serving as Founder of Season to Soar, Kymbria is a professional fundraiser for Governors State University.

Her key skills include aligning donors with opportunities to give based on their interests and passion, developing strategic partnerships and cultivating relationships with stakeholders.

Traveling is one of Kymbria’s favorite activities. She has visited three different continents so far and has a personal goal to visit the remaining continents before she turns 30. Most of all, Kymbria enjoys spending quality time with her son, Alexander.
