Our Mission

At the Kendall Johnson Foundation, we are dedicated to honoring the life and legacy of my beloved daughter, Kendall who embodied kindness, inclusivity, and talent.  Our mission is to foster a world where everyone is celebrated, friendships are cherished, and talents are matured. We hope to promote the values of compassion, empathy and acceptance, just as Kendall did. 

Through the Foundation, we aim to support and empower individuals by providing opportunities for personal and athletic growth, particularly in the realm of softball, a sport that held great significance for Kendall.  We believe in the transformative power of sports, fostering teamwork, resilience, discipline, and perseverance. We will offer scholarships and resources to talented young individuals who may otherwise face barriers to pursuing their dreams, on and off the field. 

Moreover, the Kendall Johnson Foundation seeks to cultivate a culture of beauty the extends beyond physical appearance.  We will encourage individuals to recognize their inherent worth, celebrating inner beauty, self-confidence, and embracing individual uniqueness through mentorship programs and awareness campaigns.  Central to our mission is that true beauty lies withing love, kindness and compassion. We will actively work to spread messages of empathy and understanding. 

Kendall said it best, “there is nothing more you can do to be cute, than just smile”.

Ultimately, our Foundation strives to be a beacon of hope and inspiration for all of those who have experienced loss or struggle.  We will provide support, meals, grief counseling and resources to individuals and families navigating the challenges of grief and bereavement.
