Happy Philanthropy Thursday Aero-Ba-Soul, Inc. Family,
Aero-Ba-Soul, Inc.’s CEO Kecia Palmer-Cousins and COO Kevin Cousins have been busy working with their Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise clients, providing them with one-on-one technical assistance and training resources to help sustain and grow their businesses. We have also contributed time and effort towards philanthropic and community service endeavors. We believe in paying it forward!
We truly appreciate everyone’s support this year as we motivate and collaborate with MWBEs daily. Many of our clients testimonials state that working with Kecia is like working with “Olivia Pope” and “Iyanla Vanzant”. They come away encouraged, motivated and their problems are “handled”!

THANK A TEACHER and GUIDANCE COUNSELOR TODAY! |
|
Fall has arrived! It’s time for all of us to adjust to the new season. School is in session! Kevin and Kecia, like so many other parents with children, are getting through the hybrid or virtual school model, one day at a time. Parents, students, guardians, teachers, school administrators, guidance counselors, etc. have joined the ranks of the first responders as the “sheroes” and “heroes” during this global pandemic.
We will get through this one day at a time. Stay safe, stay well, social distance, wear your masks and most of all, check on your loved ones, especially the Seniors. A kind phone call or wellness visit goes a long way!

Take time to email your children’s teachers and thank them for doing their best to provide quality teaching instruction during these challenging times! They rock and would appreciate your continued support. We absolutely love all of our sons’ teachers, guidance counselors, staff, principals and administrators at Peekskill HS! We thank them and appreciate them for all that they do daily for all of their students.
Our son’s guidance counselor, has become “priceless” to us during our son Kendall’s Senior Year! She is the best! We are getting through the Common App and all of the colleges on our son Kendall’s college list. Wish us luck! We wish all of the Seniors and their families well wishes as they also get through their college applications.
