Josh
Stevens Foundation will host and celebrate the life of a great young man whose
life was cut too short. Affectionately known as “Joshi” to his parents, Barbara
and Drew Stevens, who are also the foundation’s founders, the event is open to
all Southern Nevada families and will take place at Crazy Pita at The |
District at Green Valley Ranch.
More
than 90 schools are invited to attend. Friends, family and supporters of the
Josh Stevens Foundation will be in attendance. Families will enjoy music, face-painting and lots of food!
The
entry for the event is free. All proceeds from Joshi’s favorite pita will
benefit the Josh Stevens Foundation.
Founded
in 2008, the Josh Stevens Foundation’s mission is to recognize and reward a
child’s heartfelt KIND act and to inspire kids to be more KIND, more often.
Genuine KINDNESS born in the heart of a child deserves celebration. One month
before Josh’s 13th birthday, he lost his life in a tragic accident in September
2008. Amongst his friends, family and community, he was known as a person who
was KIND and often did good deeds for others. He left a legacy of KINDNESS that
lives on today through the work of the foundation. To date, nearly 90,000
KINDNESS cards and 110,000 “Be KIND... like Josh” t-shirts with various slogans
have been printed and distributed.
Billboards in Southern Nevada and Oregon are now up touting the
organization’s message. Everything the foundation does honors Josh: on the 5th
of every month, for Josh’s birthday, the foundation does random acts of
KINDNESS. Examples include surprising needy families by helping pay for layaway
gifts, donating money to feed children in Haiti, supporting grieving families
and much more. The logo, itself, is a recreation of actual drawings from Josh;
the three mountains represented Josh and his siblings, Shelbie and Sam, who
Josh named. The sun, to Josh, signified his parents protecting the kids with
the 12 points on the sun symbolizing Josh’s age. For more information, go to

With hectic schedules and more disposable income, working professionals prefer mobile detailing service that cater to their availability, rather than having to drive to a service and sit in line for hours.
