for the rigors of the middle school.

Kimberly McHone | Jerry Thomas Elementary School
Receiving two Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) units in August of 2015 our ASD teacher Mrs. McHone has been an inspiration to
everyone at Jerry Thomas teaching the other students and the staff how to assist these students with their exceptionalities. She

Teacher of the Year.

E. Tolbert Elementary School. I have had the wonderful opportunity to teach K, 3rd
, 4th
& 5th
grade. One of my greatest
accomplishments was when a previous student returned and told me that I didn’t know that he and his family were homeless
when he was in my class and that he didn’t feel that school had any meaning and that he wanted to give up on life. The day that he
was placed in my class was the day that changed his life.

talented teachers I have had the pleasure to know. Starting his own education in Cuba, Mr. Fernandez same to the US in 1995
bringing an already extensive music education and a very curious mind. A Macy’s teacher of the Year winner, Victor describes his
dedication to teaching in this way; “There’s nothing more rewarding in teaching than seeing each student blossom into happy,
successful, joyful adults able to reach their greatest potential in life.” Spending many hours inspiring young musicians and helping

his classroom.

Kayla Abramowitz is the Founder and CKO (Chief Kid Officer) of Kayla Cares 4 Kids, a
501(c)3 non-profit organization. She began the organization by collecting entertain-
ment and educational items to donate to children’s hospitals in an effort to help chil-dren feel better. The now 13-year-old came up with the idea after extended hospital
stays of her own, in addition to her 10-year-old brother Ethan’s numerous hospital
trips, due to chronic illness. She named the project Kayla Cares 4 Kids and enlisted the
help of her family. When it started in March of 2013, Kayla’s original goal was to
collect 100 DVD’s to donate to Nicklaus Children’s Hospital in Miami.
YEA!’S 2015 Young Entrepreneur of the Year!
While in 7th grade at Watson B. Duncan Middle School, Kayla entered the Northern
Palm Beach County Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s 2014-2015 YEA! Class. Upon
selection by the Investor Panel to represent the NPBC Chamber class at regional's,
Kayla went on to win the YEA! Saunders Scholars National Competition in Washington
D.C.! She was awarded this distinction by YEA!, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foun-
dation, and Sam’s Club. Since then, she has since received an overwhelming response
of donations. With 10,000 items collected and donated to date in all 50 states, Kayla is
working as hard as ever to “Help Sick Kids Feel Better One Smile At A Time!”
For more information, please visit Kayla’s website at www.KaylaCares4Kids.com.

Alexis is the founder of Eternal Essence Candle Company , a non-profit 501(c)3 soy
candle business that she started in 2012 to support community programs that address
social and emotional issues, ranging from bipolar disorder to depression and
addiction.
A graduate of the Northern Palm Beach County Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s
YEA! class of 2014-2015, Alexis has donated over $100,000 in candle sales to various
organizations that address mental illness, since she started this venture three years
ago. Her story was featured in People.com earlier this year, catapulting her exposure
and success! The idea for Eternal Essence was inspired by the tragic loss of Alexis’ half -
brother, as well as the loss of a close friend. Alexis’ business was awarded the Saun-
ders Scholar first-runner up at the NPBC Chamber’s Investor Panel last year!
Maria Shriver recently interviewed Alexis in Los Angeles and called her an “Architect of
Change.” She will also appear in People Magazine’s special edition book called
“Heroes Among Us,” which is expected to be released in Spring 2016. Alexis is currently
a High School senior at The Benjamin School. 100% of the proceeds from Eternal Es-
sence are donated to mental illness awareness, education, and helping to find a cure.
