“As one person, I have an ability to change a few things as I travel through this life. But, as one person, I am somewhat limited. If I can inspire others to join me on the journey– together, as a larger group, we can change the world. The truth is that we are healthier, happier, stronger and simply better when we are moving forward together.” -Kimberly Sanders Roberts
In 1984 when Madonna told Dick Clark on American Bandstand that she wanted to “Rule the World,” a young fan named Kimberly Sanders had dreams to “Change the World.” Growing up in Richmond County, North Carolina, Kim learned the importance of faith, family, friendship, and of the power of community. She also learned the importance of speaking out about the things that matter in life and the importance of standing up for those who can’t always stand for themselves. These are the values that Kim carried with her through the years that followed as she worked as a Healthcare Consultant and Patient Advocate, worked as a Stay At Home Mom, chaired numerous Community Outreach and Fundraising Projects for her sons’ schools, served on numerous Boards of Trustee in the community and helped build the law firm and force for advocacy in this world that CR Legal Teamis today. In all seasons of her life, Kim’s passion for taking care of those she loves and for leaving this world a happier, healthier, and better place than she found it, has truly shown through.
