The I Am Kept Foundation, Inc., is a nonprofit organization founded and established to provide scholarships, resources, and support to children, youth, and young adults (in college) who have lost a parent due to death; and to provide resources and support to their families. The I Am Kept Foundation, Inc., also seeks to build a community that serves and encourages students who are coping with life after the death of a parent and help them to continue with their studies and educational paths, as well as extracurricular activities. The I Am kept Foundation, Inc., was founded in honor and loving memory of "Eddie", Graham E. Hayes was a kind, loving, jovial person, with a big heart. He truly believed in trying to help others in need and he went out of his way to do just that. His children were in the 7th, 10th, and 12th grades when he was tragically murdered. Knowing the challenges that surviving spouses and students face after the loss of a parent, the Hayes family wants to give back and to help others that unfortunately face similar circumstances as they know Mr. Hayes would want to them to do.
