In 2007, Reed’s mother opened Twisted Wardrobe Designs. Growing up, Reed spent time assisting with day-to-day tasks of the business and helping make operational decisions for the boutiques. Upon graduation, Reed assisted his mom with running the two boutique clothing stores in Castle Rock and Parker, CO. While working at the clothing boutiques, he thought it would be a great idea to donate clothing by creating or partnering with a non-profit organization to give back to the community through clothing donation. 

Shortly after Reed began his nonprofit search, he was approached by Lori, President and Co-Founder of Kenyan Orphan Support. Reed instantly connected with the nonprofit’s mission and joined the team. He began managing the organization’s marketing efforts across social media platforms and eventually began creating ideas to increase funding for the nonprofit. As he took on more responsibilities with Kenyan Orphan Support, he learned that the organizational support extended to the entire Kenyan communities, not just the children.

Challenges Faced

For Reed and his mother, making it through COVID19 shutdowns with two store locations has been challenging. They have dedicated lots of time and energy towards creating an online presence in an attempt to increase online sales and get new customers online. 

Finding sponsors and generating funding has been a difficult task for the Kenyan Orphan Support team. The organization has big plans for the future, yet lacks funding to implement their ideas. Reed is determined to continue outreach and connect with donors. He is mainly focused on finding sponsors for the children and community members.

The Kenyan Orphan Support team plans on building care facilities for the elderly communities abroad. The organization currently assists all members of the community and hopes to continue implementing resources that cater to the needs of community members at all ages.

Additionally, the team has been considering the idea of creating a community Airbnb that allows tourists to visit. The money generated from Airbnb would be allocated to the community and used to assist future community projects.
