BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – With only a few days remaining, dancers in the 2019 ‘Dancing for the Space Coast’ are fine tuning their final dance routines ahead Brevard County’s biggest charity event set for June 1 at Florida Tech’s Clemente Center.

With a sold out crowd ready to pack inside the Clemente Center, one of the dancers in this year’s event is Jayashree Kumar.

Philanthropy comes naturally to Jayashree Kumar.

Born into a family driven to extend helping hands and uplift the needy, the charming wife of Dr. Sadesh Kumar has carried that torch on the Space Coast with generosity and grace.

Founding Smiles for Generations, she plays a starring role conveying healthy smiles, often to those in dire need with scant financial resources.

Jayashree is gifted with business savvy and a strong curiosity to learn.  Her skill has been the prime asset behind developing the Wickham Dental Center, one of Melbourne’s most progressive, futuristic and compassionate dental health establishments.  Her expertise in strategic planning and marketing is the cornerstone behind the brand new state of the art clinical facility, laden with the premium technological advances emerging in the dental profession.

Despite her ongoing pursuit of leadership skills and professional achievement, Jayashree Kumar reserves the time to be a model mother.

She takes pride in inspiring her children not just to excel in their studies but to become youth that reflect the ancestral integrity and philanthropy that is embedded within her family. Among her community endeavors, she inspired her daughter, Nikhita, at the age of six, to donate her cash birthday gifts to the Brevard School Board Foundation, to which Jayashree added a community match challenge that ultimately raised four thousand dollars.

Jayashree Kumar will embrace Dancing with the Stars with the same charisma that she injects into every area of her life.  She prizes the community she lives in and understands that this is an opportunity to grow, learn, laugh and make an impact. Competition for a great cause defines her daily movement; there is no question that it will also define her dance.  With her initial gift of five thousand dollars, she invites the community to support her efforts to garner treasure for some the community’s greatest needs.
