In one of her public speeches, Kellie talked about her philanthropic side and the reason for her generosity.

"We all get to that age when we ask, 'What have I done for anyone else?' I was compelled to help others. Now my business helps teens in Washington, D.C., create programming for themselves and their peers," she said.

Speaking about those her organization has worked with over the years she said,

"We have worked with CNN and other businesses. I hope more people become involved with our young people because they are left to raise themselves, essentially. I was exposed to adults that give back."

Even with all of her fantastic work, Kellie loves being a mother to her two kids and also, being the best wife she could to her husband, Hannibal. Family does matter after all!
