Origin

It all begins with an idea. Kellan first met the folks at MIMEH in the summer of 2018, when MIMEH organized a trip to Auschwitz with Holocaust survivor Eva Mozes Kor.  During that trip, they had the opportunity to witness firsthand Kellan's commitment to the importance of respecting the basic human dignity of all individuals regardless of their race, religion or background and ensuring that our differences do not divide us, but rather unite us. Since that time, Kellan has continued to use his platform as a college athlete to fight for causes that matter to him and to try and make the world a better place.  MIMEH has collaborated with Kellan on numerous occasions since then.  They are proud to launch the CARE Initiative alongside him with the goal of responding to current events in society that threaten the core ideals of equality, justice, tolerance and dignity for all.
