Hi, I'm Misty, the inspired founder of For-Purpose Kids. I'm a Mom with a purpose- to teach and inspire my son and other young kids to become the global citizens of the future by being kind & doing good for others, animals & the planet.

When my son was born in 2016, all I could think was, "What type of world would he grow up in"? As the answer seemed a bit unsettling, I got to work. My creative team & I developed 5 multi-cultural For-Purpose Kids characters to teach kids about being kind and doing good in conjunction with fun and interactive toolkits that would inspire ideas and activities that 5-10 year old kids could do on their own to make the world a better place. And with that, For-Purpose Kids was born.

With a background in early childhood education and as a passionate global volunteer, it was a dream come true for me to cultivate toolkits & design activity guides that would be simple & easy-to-use for parents yet fun and engaging for young kids. But what I love most about this journey is that it fills my soul- something I know is necessary for me to be the best Mom I can be. My most favorite "Mom" quote that I have come across thus far, and that sits on a digital sticky note on my desktop, is written by Naomi Chunilal, in The Mindful Mother:

"A clear life purpose is your path to individual happiness & fulfillment."

And for me, For-Purpose Kids is my clear life purpose. It's all about planting the seeds of kindness, compassion and doing good at a young age, as I believe it's never too early to start teaching these ideas and values. I'm so grateful that I've been able to pursue what makes me feel happy and fulfilled, something I hope to pass on to my son and other children around the world.
