Well, let's talk about it. 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: Let's talk about it. The date says it was yeah, okay, 18 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: obviously something was bothering you two in life just seeing 19 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: things and you're going because a lot of times you 20 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: get frustrated and I know that I participated in stuff 21 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: because people have asked me to participate in it. I've lended, 22 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,839 Speaker 1: I've lent my name and my my dollars as well. 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: So this is a program that you two decided to 24 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: uh to engage as part of your brain. What drove 25 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 1: that commitment in you know, that's a great question. I don't. 26 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that we ever expected Kirkshaw's Challenge to 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: be where it is today. We didn't. We didn't begin 28 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: it hoping that it would flourish into what it is become. 29 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 1: It honestly started with just this finding, this need that 30 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: needed to be met right away. And I've been going 31 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: to Zambia, Africa my entire college um time, and and 32 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: it was really important to be that Clayton would go 33 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: with me right after we got married. That three weeks 34 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: after we got married, we went to Africa and he 35 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: got to meet this little orphan, the same hope who 36 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: I had fallen in love with, and to be on 37 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: us the most critical needush She just needed a home. 38 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: She needed a safe place to call home, a stable environment, 39 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: and a family. And and that's where it began. We 40 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: realized that Clayton's platform the talent of baseball gives us 41 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: an incredible voice, an opportunity to raise money and awareness 42 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: for this. And so it was on our plane flight 43 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: back from that first trip to Zambia that we just 44 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: decided we were gonna um start this mission and Clayton 45 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: would donate money for every strikeout he made and and 46 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: really start to use his platform to give back. So, 47 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: in essence, we didn't expect it to grow to where 48 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: it is today. We honestly just went in thinking we've 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: got to build this girl at home. We wanted to 50 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: start with this children's home where orphans just like Hope 51 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: would have a place to grow up in in a 52 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: family environment. So that's where it began, with just a 53 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: singular focus, meat and passion, and gosh, it is snowballed 54 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: and escalated and grown into something beyond our wildest dreams. 55 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: Were dreams are what made this happen. It was an 56 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: emotional was what made this happen. I'm speaking to Ellen 57 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: Kershaw Um we're discussing their foundation as she started with 58 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: her husband, Clade Kershaw, And there's some other cities. We 59 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: started with Zambia and then but you have Los Angeles, 60 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: you have Dallas, and we're gonna talk about the Dominican Republic. 61 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: Los Angeles where your base. So I think that's a 62 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: natural relationship that you walk out your front door, you 63 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: see trouble, you want to fix it. Close to home. 64 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: But Dallas. So, Dallas is where Clayton and I are 65 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: goes from. We actually spend our off season there. We 66 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: still very much consider that our home base. So um, 67 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: even though we're in l A during the season and 68 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 1: that absolutely become a second home to us. We also 69 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: spend a good amount of time in Dallas, and for 70 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: a while we were only getting to go to Africa 71 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: once a year during the nath season, and um, Clayton 72 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: and I his heart just continued to crave service and 73 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: finding those kids who are vulnerable and in need, and 74 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: um that we could be touching throughout the baseball season 75 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: and during the off season. So that's how we began 76 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: to include Los Angeles and Dallas are are two home 77 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: bases to curteous challenge a arm a Texas bar from Houston, Texas. 78 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: So I didn't know. I didn't know y'all with Texas. 79 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: So this is college you got in most special? Now 80 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: now mean that your Dallas, you know, you know up 81 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: in Dallas, you know you used to really where it's happening. 82 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna just let you know that. Ellen, I'm just 83 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: gonna let you know. There's my show. I could say that, 84 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: but you do a great cause. Now not a Dominican Republic. 85 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: How did we get over there? To the Dominican Republic? 86 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: So that was really important to Clayton. That actually is 87 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: where his passion really stemmed from. He has had so 88 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: many teammates that have come from the d R and 89 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: you know, over there, baseball is value. That kind of 90 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: the most important. That for a lot of kids, the 91 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: ticket off the island, and they just kind of hold 92 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: it with such reference that sport that Clayton really knew 93 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: how powerful his voice and his platform would be open there. 94 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: And and he's met so many baseball players that were 95 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: once those honorable kids that really needed an extra boost 96 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: and a helping hand to get them to where they 97 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: are today. So that's where that's where we added on 98 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: the Dominican Republic. Okay, cool. So you have like four locations. 99 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: You have Dallas, Zambia, Dominican Republic. In each location. Is 100 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: the responsibility of the purpose the same in each location 101 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: or do they shift based on needs? You know, it 102 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: does shifts based on needs. But the essence of kirchhas 103 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 1: challenge is vulnerable and at rich children. Especially when Clayton 104 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: and I became parents ourselves, it is unimaginable for us 105 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: to think about kids out there who don't have a 106 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: stable environment, a safe place to call home as our 107 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: kids do. And so really our heart reaches in a 108 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: whole new capacity once he's become parents. I know that 109 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'm a parent. I know exactly what I 110 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: see um kids who being abused, the kids that don't 111 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: have what I think it's should be normal. It really was. 112 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: It's really uh, it's unexplainable. So I find what you're 113 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: saying very relatable from an emotional standpoint, I find it 114 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: amendable that you took your emotion and turning into a passion. 115 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: That passion became an idea and using Now now you 116 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: know you say your husband Clayton, Clayton, Clayton, and then 117 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: you say, hey, Roshan, let me just get your straights. 118 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: Zambia was was something I was involved in when I 119 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: was in college. Now, how did y'all Brunette scope together 120 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: and they formed this this is now we're twenty eleven. 121 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: Now you know you you got this passion, you know 122 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: you you're making decisions that you have four four cities 123 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: already in place, or did you start with one city 124 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: and just started expanding. That's a great question. M clayton 125 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: and I actually started dating when we were in high school. 126 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: We were just fourteen years old and best friends. And 127 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: and then I actually went off to college at Texane 128 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: him and I'm a University Houston Cougar. Now you need 129 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: to stop talking. Now, you need to stop talking than him. 130 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: So spending there, we have these four years where both 131 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: of us really got to flourish on our own, and 132 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: we were still dating, but he was pursuing his dream 133 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: of baseball, and meanwhile I was going to spending my 134 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: college summers going to Africa, and so we almost were 135 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: going down the two completely opposite past, both both pursuing 136 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: our passions and dreams, and and part of us were 137 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: a little bit worried about, like, how can these actually 138 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: ever intersect? How are we going to figure out how 139 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: we suppose get to do what we are passionate about, 140 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: and how there be any overlap. And that's kind of 141 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: the beauty of Kershaw's challenge. It it is the perfect 142 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: culmination of my passion for Zambia and the orphans there 143 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: and Clayton getting to use his platform to rescue him 144 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: to bring awareness to them, to raise a lot of 145 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: money for them. And even though it began as my 146 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: passion and my calling, I mean once Clayton went over 147 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: there and thought from himself, you you can't help, but 148 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: it becomes your passion and your calling to it. Just 149 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: it changes who you are, and um, you leave a 150 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: part of your heart over there that you never get back. Um, 151 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: it's very much become a part of who he is 152 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: as well. Never let's talk about this because I know 153 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: when you do locations like this, you have to parder 154 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: with organizations that are already committed in this direction. How 155 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: do you select it? Because that's a trust factor, because 156 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: now you're putting your brand and your association and you 157 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: know sometimes when you do good, if you do good 158 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: with the wrong people, you can come back with a 159 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: negative back back lash. How do you see? You know, 160 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: how do you how do you partner up with? How 161 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: do you vet the organization that you're partnering up with? 162 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: You know, we have a really extensive application and interview 163 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: process and UM we ask for references. We do site 164 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: visit um Arise Africa with who we partner with an 165 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: Africa and we've actually Clayton and I got to be 166 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: with them from the very beginning and so in essence 167 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: we've a little bit gotten to help them grow and 168 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: grows from the very beginning and that's made a huge 169 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: difference to us. We fully invest not only monetarily, but 170 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: UM in a in a tight relationship with all these beneficiaries. 171 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: We are not an organization that just wants to write 172 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 1: a check and turn the cheek. UM. We want to 173 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: write a check and be extremely invested. We want to 174 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: do service projects with them, We want to attend board 175 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: and beteans with them. We have a follow up program 176 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: where we years later, we're still following up with the 177 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: organization to make sure that our money and donation is 178 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: UM still being utilized to its full because to be 179 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: that's very small, very small. We have two minutes left 180 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: in this break. I want to talk about some of 181 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: the money making conversation. The purposes give information to people 182 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 1: and you're talking about charity, talking about give me back, 183 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: you're talking about fundation. I get a lot of people, 184 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: uh that contact me or come on the show talking 185 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: about this and it's not it's hard work. So can 186 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: you tell I'll just expound on what is what's involved 187 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: in running that charity day to day and key advice 188 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: you you've gotten over the years. Yeah, you know, it's 189 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: sometimes it feels like you're taking two steps forward and 190 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: one step back. And that's just the nature of not 191 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: only working with nonprofits but third world countries. And you 192 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: can't feel defeated when you do take that one step 193 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: back because sometimes those one step backs are critical learning 194 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: moves and you have to learn from them. Um. The 195 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: other thing that we had to learn early on is 196 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: the blanket of poverty. The amount of kids who are 197 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: in need and at risk who need our help is 198 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: completely overwhelming. And if we started trying to change all 199 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: of that at once, I think it'd be debilitating. And 200 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: so what we've really had to learn is it isn't 201 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: one child at the time, and if we can change 202 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: the life of one child, then cursh Our Challenge has 203 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: done its job well. And we've had to don't think 204 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: so much about the quantity of kids, um, but the 205 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: quality of our impact. And so that has made a 206 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: huge difference in running a nonprofit is just measuring our success, 207 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: you know, and trying to raise awareness, of course, trying 208 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: to raise money, but really wanting to go deep with 209 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: these organizations and really make sure that we are making 210 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: a deep change and impact in the lives. We know. 211 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: It is really powerful what you just stated, because sometimes 212 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: when you are all successful, Uh, sometimes people can can 213 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: be a curse because you don't know how to react, 214 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: because people people that naturally think that money just flows 215 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: from the river when you got it, especially your situation 216 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: because you know your your your husband's financial success. It's 217 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: in the journal public. You know, he signs of contract. 218 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: Everybody knows, and then everybody starts knocking on the door. 219 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: Everybody thinks, Hey, I on, then you gotta live your 220 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: life too.

Well, ping pong is clayton probably 246 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: second passion in life after baseball, and it kind of 247 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: the ping pong table came with the marriage, and so 248 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: it has always been our dining room table and you know, 249 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 1: the centerfold of our household and so um.

And so so when 336 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: you talk when in store, a lot of people they 337 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 1: go to a grocery store, they never go in because 338 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: they have these little glass the stores. When you you 339 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: point out the food that you want, then they pass 340 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: it through the glass so you can get it exactly. 341 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: So so you assume that what's the big deal given 342 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: to the experience of shopping in the store, Well, guess what, 343 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: A lot of people don't have that experience. A lot 344 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: of people it's something we definitely take for granted. And 345 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: then they want to teach kids that, you know, their 346 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: parents are able to go to a grocery store to 347 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: get that entire experience that even have a checkout, even 348 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: though they're not paying for the food, they're still going 349 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: to go through the checkoutline and check out the food. 350 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: And and we just think that that's so important for 351 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: kids to realize that in an early age with their family. 352 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: You know, it feels mainstream, it feels normal. It kind 353 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: of gives the kids a sense of you know, my 354 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: mom and dad are providing for me in an incredible way. 355 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: So we just love what they're doing. And this idea 356 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: that they had, it's amazing. This clean. But let's let's 357 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: back that up. It's clean, and that's a lot of 358 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 1: things that people take for granted to walking into an 359 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: environment that you know, you walk our start the store 360 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: is not trash left and right when you're walking into 361 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: the store, and the tras trash will follow inside the 362 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: store sometimes. But let's let's I want to talk about 363 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: a couple of more questions for loose time with you, 364 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: because I've thoroughly been enjoying that probably went offline a 365 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 1: couple of times because I've been having so much fun 366 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 1: with you. But I was a question here, what is 367 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 1: the giving board? What exactly is that? So this is 368 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: one of my favorite parts of Ping Pong. We have 369 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: this giving board where everybody can sponsor um A Rescue 370 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: through International Justice Mission, and what they do is they 371 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: help rescue victims of human trafficking globally. But Clayton and 372 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: I are especially invested in I j M at in 373 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: the Dominican Republic and we've gotten to witness firsthand the 374 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: impact that I j M has in this country and 375 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: what a rescue you mean. And so for sixty three 376 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: hundred dollars, someone can UM put their name on a 377 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: square fund and fund to rescue, which ultimately is literally 378 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: saving one life or multiple lives through um INTEL and 379 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: getting the justice system behind and truly just taking these 380 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: systems out of trafficking. And I mean, you can't even 381 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: put a price on that. It's it's incredible. And last 382 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: year that ball was filled up before even half the 383 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: event was over. So we're excited and we've created more 384 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 1: squares this year and UM that just to me, it's 385 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: such a tangible way that you can give back, and 386 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: it's pretty incredible to see how fast those boxes fly 387 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: during the evening wow as very powerful Georgia is as 388 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: a state. That is really how the list of sex 389 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: trafficking you know, so you know lots. So they always 390 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: tell you if you see any young lady with somebody 391 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 1: that doesn't look right, doesn't look normal, see that next 392 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: to an adult, whether it's male of female, don't be 393 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: thrown off. You know, it's not just men transport not 394 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: young ladies, women too, So always be able to situations 395 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: that don't look right. Just hey, bring it to people's attention. 396 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: Don't be afraid, don't. I don't want to. I don't 397 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: want to say on the point out the wrong thing. 398 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: The wrong thing is that you don't do the right thing. 399 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: So it was a couple of more courses I want 400 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: to talk about here. Did you want to say something 401 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 1: because you you know you have just agreeing with you 402 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: on all that? Cool? What are some of the other 403 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: upcoming projects that the Kershaw's Challenges doing this year and 404 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: in the future, so locally in l A. Actually next 405 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: week we have this um event. It's really special.

We get to pack up, 408 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: pass out thousands and thousands of backpacks, two kids who 409 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: are about to start school and maybe you're going into 410 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 1: the school you're feeling very unprepared. Um. And so these 411 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 1: families they line up around the blocks starting at a 412 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: m in the morning, just to make sure that their 413 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: kid get a backpack filled with all of the school 414 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 1: spots they'll needs that these parents can't provide themselves. And 415 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: so once, um, once the kids and the families enter 416 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: the line starting at ten am, I mean they've now 417 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: waited out there for seven hours hoping to be one 418 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: of the first team lines. And Clayton and I get 419 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: to stand at the front of the lines and and 420 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: see the smiles on these kids faces, just feeling like 421 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: they are now fully prepared and equipped to start school. 422 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: But once they enter the back to School Bash, it's 423 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: pretty magical.
