He got the...

Lofton leading the charge... and charge it was!

... ball rolling! But "who" is he? Yes, who got the ball rolling this ND Day? Who was the first to step forward for Hall and King? Indeed, who was first to give to our noble cause? Well, we know who it was... it was Keenan Lofton, Steds junior and native Hawaiian! Guess it wasn't special enough to be Steds only Hawaiian... so Keenan had go and became the FIRST Steds donor this ND Day. And Keenan didn't do it for the attention nor the praise. You see, that's not how our Hawaiian rolls. On being the first to donate on ND Day, Lofton said, "As a rising senior and member of St. Edward’s Hall for the past three years, I fully embraced the duty of giving back to both Hall and King.  Over this past year it was imperative as ever to keep the kids in mind. Leading the charge was an honor, and we exceeded expectations in meeting our goals this ND Day.”
