Carrying Forward a Legacy of Love: The Annual Wallace L. Umstead Legacy Cookout Returns Sept 11, 2026!

Some legacies are built through titles or accomplishments. Other's are built through kindness, generosity, and the way someone makes people feel. The Annual Wallace L. Umstead Legacy Cookout is one of those legacies. This event was my father Wallace "Wally" Umstead's idea. He believed our seniors and veterans deserved to be celebrated, appreciated, and surrounded by community. He understood that sometimes the greatest gift we can give is simply showing up, sharing a meal, and reminding someone that they matter....

NONPROFITS ARE NOT JUST MAKING A DIFFERENCE. WE’RE BUILDING WHAT’S NEXT.

Today, on National Nonprofit Day, the Misstakenid Gives Back Foundation proudly celebrates being a recognized nonprofit organization committed to serving communities, creating access, developing people, and turning purpose into action.

From fighting food insecurity to creating professional development opportunities and expanding access to AI and technology, we believe impact should be intentional, inclusive, and community driven.
And we’re just getting started.

Here’s your engagement challenge:
Tag a nonprofit that deserves more recognition. 👇🏾
Then share this post so someone else discovers an organization doing meaningful work.

Because when we support the people doing the work, we strengthen the communities we all call home.

🚨 WE HAVE NEWS! 🚨

The Misstakenid Gives Back Foundation is officially partnering with Grow with Google! 🎉💻

Introducing the MGB Access Lab, the newest initiative from the Misstakenid Gives Back Foundation designed to expand digital opportunity and bridge the gap to future-ready skills.

And this one is BIG.

We believe:

✨ Success Looks Different.
✨ Access Shouldn't.

This partnership allows us to help connect more people with digital skills, professional development, and opportunities to prepare for the future of work.

We want them to have support.

We want them to have confidence.

We want them to see what is possible when someone believes in their potential and gives them the tools to move forward.

This is the ripple effect in action.

And we are just getting started.

Stay connected for upcoming learning opportunities and resources!

***** Introducing the 5th Goal of the Misstakenid Gives Back Foundation*****

AI for the Culture

Success Looks Different. Access Shouldn't.

Technology is changing everything.
How we learn. How we work. How we build businesses. How we create opportunities.

We believe underserved communities deserve access to the same tools and knowledge shaping the future.
AI for the Culture is a new initiative inspired by our founder's passion for technology, innovation, and community impact. Our goal is to create programming that helps people understand, access, and leverage AI in ways that create real opportunities for growth.

This is bigger than technology.

This is about equity. This is about access. This is about making sure no one gets left behind.
As we build this vision, fundraising and community support will be essential to helping us provide workshops, resources, and programming to the communities that need them most.

❤️ Follow our journey.
🤝 Partner with us.
💰 Support the mission.
📣 Share the vision.

What does AI access mean to you?
