Greetings Kansas City Community Member:

Feeding The 5,000, Inc. a non profit charity in Kansas city focused on youth. Our nutrition initiatives have fed over 70,000 underprivileged kids in KC since starting over 4 years ago. In an effort to ensure our At-risk kids in Kansas City have every academic advantage necessary to excel as productive members of the community and society at large, we are reaching out to Kansas city in hopes that they will join us in our [Drive to Tech 5,000] computer donation program.

Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, is quoted as saying:
If you give people tools, and they use their natural ability and their curiosity, they will develop things in ways that will surprise you very much beyond what you might have expected.

We would love to have your support on this "Tech”initiative focused on the underprivileged youth of Kansas City. Tech is taking off in KC and our kids need to become a part of this exciting time. How can they become a part of it? We are looking to provide laptop/Tablets to 5,000 kids in KC and teach them to CODE (programming) as well. This will provide them with life skills that can sustain them, motivate them, feed them and prepare them for Kansas city as the Tech capital of the US. Lets get behind them KC.

If you wish, please take a moment to indicate that you will help sponsor this community effort by calling me at [877-252-3627] or by visiting our
