Join us in extending our heartfelt gratitude to the outgoing KCC board member whose nine years of service have left a profound impact on our organization. Will Hurd's steady, servant leadership has shaped so much of who we are today—guiding strategic planning efforts, championing DEIB initiatives, and lending thoughtful insight across countless responsibilities that strengthened our mission. We are deeply thankful for his dedication, vision, and integrity in every role. His legacy of service will continue to inspire and influence our work for years to come. We wish Will the very best as he begins his next chapter—with appreciation, admiration, and a truly grateful heart.

Here, the real gems are the people. 🥰💎💕 LeadingAge PA CARF International NBC10 Philadelphia
