### Introducing Always Beek1nd KC: A 501(c)(3) Organization
**Mission Statement**
Always Beek1nd KC is dedicated to more than just technology; it’s about community, connection, and creating a brighter future for America. By providing new tech, we aim to bring families closer, helping parents and children bond and understand each other better. Keeping kids engaged and busy with technology can keep them out of trouble, fostering a safer and more connected community. Ultimately, we are paving pathways to a brighter future in the tech industry for America’s youth.
**Our Name Explained**
- **Always**: Represents a habit or a consistent way of doing things. We believe in always being there, always giving back, and always caring.
- **Beek1nd**:
- **Bee**: Just like bees protect and serve their communities by pollinating, we aim to spread love and support within our communities. Bee also stands as an acronym for the initials of my daughters, emphasizing the personal connection and inspiration behind our mission.
- **k1nd**: Pronounced as "kind," it reminds us to show kindness everywhere we go. You never know how a small gesture can change someone's life. The number "1" replaces the "i" to highlight the importance of self-care, mental health, and well-being. Taking care of yourself allows you to better care for others.
**Our Values**
- **Community**: Building stronger bonds within our community is at the heart of what we do. Kansas City, our hometown, is the starting point of our mission.
- **Connection**: Using technology as a tool to bring families together and keep children engaged and safe.
- **Future**: Providing pathways for youth to enter and excel in the tech industry, ensuring a brighter future for them and for America.
**Personal Story**
The spirit of Always Beek1nd KC is deeply rooted in personal experience. My background in customer service and chauffeuring, though not making me rich in material wealth, has made me rich in love and talent at heart. My journey of helping others with empathy and compassion has shaped the ethos of Always Beek1nd KC. Kansas City, the heart of America, is where my kids grew up, and I hope to see our community come together and expand this mission across the state and beyond.
Together, we can make a difference by always being kind, giving back, and supporting one another. Join us in our mission to create a more connected, caring, and technologically advanced future for our children and our community.
