Join Our Mission

Meet Todd, Founder of the Kares Foundation.

Todd has a personal connection to the issue of drunk driving. When he was just a child, both his mother and sister were taken away from him by a drunk driver.

Todd created the Kares Foundation as a way to honor their memory and raise awareness of the real-life impact that this phenomenon has. Todd has made it his mission to reach as many people as possible, traveling across the U.S. to share his stories and the effects of drunk driving at schools, churches, victim impact panels, and other events.

Real Stories, Real Impact

Todd is a very gifted speaker and is passionate about helping kids learn about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. The story he tells of dealing with grief after his mother and sister were killed by a drunk driver would make anyone think twice about drinking alcohol. Todd is kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend donating to the Kares Foundation so that more teens can continue to hear Todd’s very needed and timely message.


—Testimonial from Georgia

The Kares foundation is straight from the heart and story of its founder Todd, and straight to all those who have lost someone due to an impaired driver. It’s something that touches so many of us, and Todd’s passion is to educate and empower young people to make choices that could change lives. He knows his stuff and he speaks from the experience of how losing those you love due to impaired driving can impact people long term. Partner with him in whatever way you can, he longs to make a difference and will with your help.


—Testimonial from Matt

Real Stories, Real Impact

Todd has an uncanny ability to evoke emotion in his presentation. He is passionate about Kares and promoting his experiences with the effects of impaired driving and how much it can devastate people's lives. He would be a tremendous asset to any school seeking to educate their students with the effects of drugs and alcohol. Please help him make that happen!
