✨ Winter Wonderland Gala Honoree Spotlight
Honoring: Demetrius Kee
Demetrius Kee is a young man whose life radiates purpose, faith, and excellence. From his beginnings in Montclair, New Jersey, Demetrius was dedicated to God’s service by his family—his mother, Granger Kee, his aunt, Margot Parramore, and his grandmother, Nancey Kee—who knew he was set apart for great things.
A proud graduate of Hillside High School and Drew University, where he earned a degree in Religious Studies with a minor in Theatre, Demetrius has continued to merge intellect, artistry, and ministry with grace. His gifts extend far beyond the pulpit and stage. As a professional, award-nominated actor performing across New Jersey and New York, he brings stories to life with depth and sincerity, touching audiences through every role he embodies.
By day, Demetrius serves as a Legislative Aide to Council Member-At-Large Rev. Louise Scott-Rountree, one of Newark’s most dedicated public servants. In this role, he models what it means to serve both God and community with integrity and humility.
A devoted member of Bethlehem Judah Christian Fellowship COGIC under the leadership of Bishop Anthony W. Gilyard, Demetrius remains active in both the music and youth ministries. He is passionate about using every platform—whether on stage, in city hall, or in church—to glorify God and uplift others.
EmpowHer Enterprises is proud to honor Demetrius Kee at this year’s Winter Wonderland Gala for his faith-filled leadership, his commitment to community, and his example of what it means to let your light shine in every space you enter.
“To whom much is given, much is required—and Demetrius continues to give with heart, humility, and excellence.”
