Kimberly Clark mentors justice-involved teens, foster youth, and marginalized young people through sailing programs that create safety, joy, and empowerment. She centers presence, consistency, courage, and action, embodying PMLE (Practice Makes Love Easy) principles. She connects youth to community-based rehabilitative experiences aboard Blue Water Foundation sailboats, where participants laugh, learn, and discover strength. California State Senator Josh Becker recognized her courage in sharing lived experience and advocacy. Her role is defined by presence, connection, and quiet leadership rather than formal title. Her journey began in her early twenties with a simple instinct to help and grew into lifelong community building.
Picture Kimberly Clark standing at the helm of a sailboat, the wind catching her hair as she guides a group of foster youth across the San Francisco Bay-not just steering the vessel, but also anchoring each moment in love, presence, and possibility. As the seventh PMLE, Practice Makes Love Easy recognition champion, Kimberly exemplifies what it means to show up with heart and purpose.
In the rhythm of the San Francisco Bay, where wind meets water and resilience meets joy, her practices exemplify how PMLE teaches us: through consistency, courage, presence, and action. A lifelong community builder, she is a living testament to the truth that love isn't just a feeling; it's a practice. It's showing up, listening deeply, and creating spaces where healing and hope can take root.
