London Rosiere, Head Kid
London Rosiere was born and raised in New Orleans, where she grew up dancing and embracing life with joy. A passionate advocate for children’s growth, creative expression, and health awareness, London has always been driven by a desire to uplift and inspire young people with positivity and purpose.
After losing her home during Hurricane Katrina, London was stranded in New York City. In April 2014, following the heartbreaking loss of her mother, she was inspired to head to Montauk to heal and created her dream, Camp SoulGrow, a nonprofit creative workshop camp for children of all backgrounds to come together as one and find reasons to love themselves, the people around them, and be given the inspiration to become whoever they dream to be. The camp began in Montauk and quickly expanded to having a location at Third House in Montauk, The camp SoulGrow Studio in Montauk, a 23-Passenger Bus, and a location in Hampton Bays.
In 2016, after the passing of her brother, London felt a deep calling to give back to her native roots. Motivated by love and healing, she expanded Camp SoulGrow by opening a chapter in her hometown of New Orleans. The organization later grew to serve even more children in South Plaquemines Parish, helping to uplift underserved communities throughout South Louisiana, especially before-during-and after the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
London’s work has earned her notable recognition: she received the 2016 Gilbert Tilles Award from the Association of Fundraising Professionals Long Island and was named a “Hero of the Hamptons” by The Independent Newspaper in May 2017.
Her educational and experiential background is as diverse as it is impressive. She studied ballet at The Kirov Academy of Ballet, fashion at The Fashion Institute of Technology, and Culinary & Baking at the New Orleans Culinary & Hospitality Institute. She also attended Tulane University and volunteered at the Watoto Wa Baraka Orphanage in Kenya.
London holds a wide range of certifications and licenses:
- Nationally Licensed Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)
- USCG-licensed OUPV Captain
- Certified Personal Trainer (ISSA)
- Special Reserve Deputy for the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office
- Licensed Louisiana Real Estate Agent
Additionally, London has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, completed 23 full marathons, and dances every day.
In December 2024, London was honored with the President’s Lifetime Achievement Award for Volunteerism from AmeriCorps.
