Brad Holcomb
The Imani Kenya Mission
Imani Kenya’s Mission is to match bright and deserving graduating 8th graders who would not otherwise be able to attend high school, and potentially college, with financial sponsors and local mentors; and to empower communities through economic development projects that will allow families to send their own children on to higher education.
Brad began his career with Kodak in Rochester, NY, where he worked for 20 years. Over his next 15 years as a supply chain management professional, he worked for 5 companies in 5 different industries, and is now gainfully retired in Dallas, Texas! Since 2013, Brad has been a member of Lovers Lane United Methodist Church, where he met Pastor Jacob. Pastor Jacob grew up in Meru, Kenya, and was educated there through primary, secondary and seminary schools with support from the Methodist Church of Kenya and his community. In 2009-2010, Jacob and his family relocated to Dallas, Texas, so that he could take advantage of the opportunity to attend SMU/Perkins School of Theology.
A prayer and a dream started Imani Kenya's Mission in January 2014.
