Kennedy-Connelly Educational Assistance Fund
Rev. Keitha Wiggins-Kennedy; Dr. David McClendon, Co-chairs
The late Rev. Dr. John W. Kennedy and late Mrs. Roxie P. Connelly were advocates for young people and education.
Dr. Kennedy often spoke of how, as a child, he had been labeled as socially maladjusted and unable to learn. He refused to be bound by those labels and later in life, went back to school, earning Masters and Doctorate degrees.
Mrs. Connelly, a lifelong educator, served for more than a decade as the Director of the P-ESD's Christian Education Department. Her devotion to young people, education, and the Salisbury community were hallmarks of her life.
