Testimonials
My name is Kennedy Jones and I joined Finally First as a way to enhance my college experience with community and campus engagement. Participating in Finally First has been an incredibly rewarding experience. This organization has shown me the power of fostering meaningful relationships and the value of networking in both career and personal spaces. It’s not just about professional growth, but also about feeling connected to a community that gives back in such an impactful way. Finally First has truly taught me the importance of self-care while serving others. The sense of purpose and belonging I’ve found is unmatched, and I am so grateful for the opportunities to grow, connect, and contribute.

Being a part of Finally First was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. It was the very first organization I was truly a part of, and through it, I met incredible people who loved and supported me during a time when I needed it most. I’m especially grateful for my advisor, Dr. Walker, who constantly held me accountable and always wanted the best for me in every way. Her guidance, along with the genuine sisterhood and encouragement I found in Finally First, truly changed me for the better. I will always cherish my time in Finally First. It shaped me, strengthened me, and reminded me of the power of community and growth. I absolutely loved every moment of it!
