Kim Taresco knows her calling. After dealing with a lifetime of health problems, she has discovered her strength comes through loving others. Unable to have children of her own, she became a second mother to many of the disadvantaged youth within her community.

As the executive director of the Boys and Girls Club of Halifax County, her mission is to inspire the youth to reach their potential and take advantage of the opportunities around them. Her commitment to this mission defines her life.

Kim goes beyond expectation by sacrificing her own needs in order to invest in the lives of those around her.
