In 2009 the young Kevin Alexander Marshall, a 24 year old native of Houston,TX was killed while at a friend’s birthday party.  “Another life gone too soon to gun violence”, was the cry from the community.

The goal of the foundation is to I.M.P.A.C.T. (I’m Pushing Against Crime Today) other young people by educating them on guns and the prevention of gun violence; Giving the community a platform to communicate with each other.

The ministry expresses unity by calling to action churches, family, friends, the community organizations, and the nation.
