Our story

Kamal Jones was a very passionate young culinary enthusiast from Washington, DC, who dreamed of becoming a professional chef. Kamal's life was tragically taken while he walked to the store to get laundry detergent to wash his work clothes and continue his love of cooking and serving the community at Union Kitchen where he thrived and was well on his way to becoming the master chef he dreamed of. Kamal also enjoyed cooking and serving dinners in the community.

Our goal

The Kamal Jones Memorial Scholarship Fund aims to honor the memory of Kamal Jones, a passionate young culinary enthusiast from Washington, DC, who dreamed of becoming a professional chef. This scholarship will support high school students from the DMV area with a keen interest in pursuing culinary arts. Our mission is to empower the youth in this underserved area by providing financial assistance and mentorship opportunities, thereby enabling them to achieve their dreams in the culinary field. The Kamal Jones Memorial Scholarship is more than a financial aid program; it is a community effort to empower high school youth in the DMV area, by opening doors to culinary careers that can change lives.

Gun violence has a taken away from our youths, our childhoods and hope for the future generations. We should not have to live fear, not knowing when the next bullet will claim a life so close to home. It’s heartbreaking. It has to end somehow and one day soon.
