đź’™ Walmart Associates, We Need Your Help! đź’™

Foundation Fifteen is a newly established 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created in memory of our son, Landen Cates, with a vision to support youth, promote mental health awareness, help break the stigma surrounding mental health, and provide resources to young people and families in need.

We are currently enrolled in Walmart’s Spark Good program, and eligible donations are being matched, allowing your generosity to go even further.

As a new nonprofit, we are working to build the foundation needed to turn our vision into action. Every donation helps us move closer to creating programs, community events, and support opportunities that can make a lasting difference in the lives of youth and families.

If you are a Walmart associate, we would be honored if you would consider supporting Foundation Fifteen through Spark Good.

If you’re unable to donate, please help us by:

âś… Tagging fellow Walmart associates
✅ Helping spread awareness of Walmart’s Spark Good program

And if another nonprofit is close to your heart, we encourage you to support them through Spark Good. Every nonprofit started with a dream and a community willing to believe in it.

Thank you for helping us honor Landen’s memory and work toward a future where more young people know they are seen, valued, and supported.

“Great things often begin with a single act of kindness.”

This is not an easy post for us to write.

This week, our community is grieving the loss of a young life. While we did not know this student personally, the weight of this loss is deeply felt—especially in a place that already knows this kind of heartbreak.

When we created Foundation Fifteen, it was born from unimaginable loss after losing our son, and from a desire to make sure no one feels alone in their pain. We never want another family, another group of friends, or another school to experience this kind of grief—but when it happens, we believe it’s important to come together in compassion and support.

To everyone who is hurting right now—family, friends, classmates, teachers—you are in our hearts. Please don’t carry this alone.

If you or someone you love is struggling, reach out. Talk to someone you trust. Connection matters, and help is available.

We will continue to show up for this community in any way we can, honoring every life by encouraging conversation, support, and hope.

Please take care of yourselves and each other.

— Foundation Fifteen
