Join us in protecting our kids! 

“When written in Chinese, the word 'crisis' is composed of two characters – one represents danger, and one represents opportunity.” John F. Kennedy

Our Mission

The mission of Crisis Knowledge Management and Preparedness Foundation aka BePreparedBeReady.org is to provide educational services and programs to help individuals, businesses and communities become more sustainable and be ready and prepared for disasters and other crises. We are doing that by starting with protecting kids.

Why this mission is so important

With the frequency and intensity of natural and man-made disasters and crises on the rise. According to the UNICEF’s 2023 report, Humanitarian Action for Children” “The climate crisis is a child’s rights crisis. Climate change is the top driver of humanitarian need and human suffering. These consequences are already being felt by millions children, their families and communities worldwide.”

A Metaphor for Resilience

How can you can make a difference! 

Many young people feel overwhelmed by all the global challenges. Sustainability can mean the difference between devastation and protection. That’s a powerful message for a generation that will inherit the consequences of today’s decisions. It can spark ideas for  community planning that prioritize resilience.

"YOUNG VOICES - BIG IMPACT"

THE WHY'S:  BY THE NUMBERS 

Why Get Involved:

76% OF PARENTS

Worry about their kid's fears, anxiety, depression & potential suicide

75% OF KIDS

Worry about whether will be a planet to live on, will they be shot, will they be bullied, will they be harassed online, are they going to be able to go to school or get a job.

Young women think about whether they should have children or not

MENTAL HEALTH EXPERTS

Agree one of the best to overcome all of this is for young people to be empowered, inspired, become activists.
