Diverse Daisies is a Minneapolis-based nonprofit designed to empower girls ages 11 to 15. As founder and board member, Kimberly Perry for 13 years has drawn on her experience growing up in foster care and moving out on her own at 17 years old. Her mission has been to create an environment where young women can find mentorship, new experiences, and personal development opportunities. Perry, who is principal owner of Minnesota Real Estate Dynamics, recently handed over leadership while remaining on the board. “Kim consistently goes above and beyond in her role by advocating for accountable board procedures that bring about traceable outcomes to impact more young women,” says fellow board member Nicole Scanlon, family wealth director for Morgan Stanley.
