St. Louis American: Tony Thompson

Tony Thompson, founder of Kwame Building Group, has been meeting with the gentlemen's club at Carnahan High School for four years. Now Woodward Elementary has asked if he will start a mentoring program there as well. This year, Thompson also became a board member at Herzog Elementary, a pilot school with St. Louis Public School District.
Besides the recent additions to his activism, he has been active with Teach for America for the past five years. His company has also committed $1 million to local universities and colleges for scholarships, and they are half way to meeting the goal.
