Welcome Kim Hawley, Board President

Kim joined the board of Share My Smile in August 2025 after an extensive search to find a suitable replacement for Chelsea Best, the organization’s founder.

​

Kim brings with him extensive experience in team development, project management and strategic planning having run divisions for two companies in the publishing industry and having owned businesses of his own, including K&H Print Group where he is the acting Chief Revenue Officer.

​

He is no stranger to the non-profit world having spent over 14 years in various board positions with the Chicago Book Clinic, including Director of Education, Secretary, Director of Finance, Editor-in-Chief, and as their board’s president for three years. During his tenure with the CBC, he restructured programs to generate net revenue, rebuilt the association’s reserve accounts,

and started a scholarship trust in the organization’s name with recipients from three Chicago area colleges.


Kim has a strong interest in seeing Share My Smile grow both in terms of the quality of services we offer, but also the number of kids and families we serve within the Greater Omaha/Council Bluffs area. He wants to explore ways we can continue to support our foster kids even after they have aged out of traditional support services and build a self-sustaining trust for the Organization.
 

Kim grew up in Ohio and Indiana and received his B.A. in history from Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. He later went on to get a master’s degree in management, and a second MA in Marketing from Webster University. He moved to Bellevue NE in January 2006 from rural Missouri.

He and his wife Jamie currently reside in Beaver Lake, NE and have five children and three grandchildren between them.
