Jonah Heimann


Co-founder and President of the Youth Board

As a vegan since birth, Jonah has grown up thinking critically about the choices he makes and the impact that respect and kindness has on other humans, animals and the environment. Whether helping nearby neighborhoods through local organizations like HomeFront or traveling abroad to help street children in Quito, Ecuador and bring supplies and teach English to children in the Dominican Republic, Jonah has always been happiest when helping those less fortunate. He has also hiked coast to coast in England, Scotland, and Wales to raise awareness and money for organizations that aim to help others.

To further his knowledge of leadership skills and sustainability, Jonah spent a semester abroad at the Island School in Eleuthera. He has brought that newfound knowledge to the Pennington School, where is currently a senior. We are made of our experiences. Jonah is grateful for all of the experiences that led him to co-found kindcore with his father. Jonah is excited to spread kindness through kindcore and make the world a little bit better every day.
