“Together we can help BEET the stigma for Foster Youth in America!"

Let’s focus, focus, focus in on Foster Youth employment in America. While shopping at a local store for a new pet, we walked around for hours undecided which should we take home with us. I had been bored this summer from the same old kick pools and festivals that gather people together for such a blasé type of feeling. Heading out walking past the ever increasing ads of not only adopting pets, but children as well. There are so many kids unaccounted for, unspoken for, no one is picketing outside the District Court right now. And why is that? Foster Kids need our attention! I want to do something that is caring and nurturing for them. I need your help!
Since working for a new Tech company, I have learned alot about the backends of Business. During my pregnancy, I had alot of time to brainstorm and think about my career path. I’m not bored with work, but I am searching for my calling and what purpose that I will fulfill in this lifetime. So, I pondered this: How could WE do something revolutionary in Agri Tech, and where to find room for collaborations in programs that will employ people (not robots). You want to know a problem ? Foster Youth have no real security in the Work Force. So, why not let this employment age be a focus about them? Solving a few problems not just one. One economical solution I can offer is to gauge in first at the layers. Kids don’t have full access to a garden at all public schools. They need to learn how to grow crop. I do. And I Care. I care about their future. As a mother of a now 3 year old, I care about her future. So, while cooking dinner one day, I came across a vegetable that makes most people cringe. So here’s the challenge. Working through logistical roadblocks and make this work: #BEETanything. Your looking around right now like that head executive in the movie Annie did when he was asked hypothetically to let a child move in with him. This is where most companies thrive! Let’s get out there and beat these statistics our kids face. Foster Kids are OUR kids too! Don’t overlook their option to fail in independency is very REAL. They are depending on community programs, like I was direct recipient of… so I know what It can do. Make it make sense. Dollars and sense, that is. Can greenhouses across the U.S. come together for something that is Greater than Great? Its not that the poor want to depend on the States system, but most of these people unaccounted for could in fact make the system work in reverse, for them. Pave it forward. Its a new motto in my life, and teaching for Public schools in my previous work, I know that “Idealism” can make this country Great again. So, with my pen and paper in hand (laptop and keyboard) I have embarked on a new Corp for Foster Youth. It will take me a while to get the contracts out, but I see the vision and know that spelling this out makes it plain. Will you join me? The star of the arena, is a Beets. This is because when we say the word we think of the verb. While working spare time on creatively re-branding an age old remedy for (2) years, there is a market in an oddly uncommon area for an audience. College students. And while most health enthusiasts know where I’m getting with this, this is another reason why this Startup will work. In addition to have an educational aspect for the next igens. We make specialty items in the only incubator near our town. And the success is not just making a profit, its making a progress… for collaborations are not solely a one person idea. Its a community action module. The bonus is that it will put so many kids to an ease of mind, by making a program for them to work. This effort is to span nationwide. I will need a strong management team with proven track record. Are you ready? Together we can help BEET the stigma for Foster Youth in America!
