Overview

Mission

Education and motivating young people to reach their full potential as leaders.

What it reported doing in 2025

Flint and iron exists to spark posivitve purpose in youth through educating parents and young people that everyone has potential little choices matter, and its never too late tobe great. To help attain this goal flint and iron hired its first full-time employee - - a middle school teacher who stepped out of the classroom to dedicate themself to speaking and creating content. This allowed us to create more tools and reach more people than we have before. Our resources include a weekly podcast, daily social media, and an online tech workshop that helps families fight for each other, not with each other. Our social media reaches more than 2,500 people each week. Having a full-time employee also allowed more oppurtunityies for speaking, including churchs, avid leadership classes in middle schools, the hoby leadership program in Washington state, and the christian camp and conference association ccca in Idaho.
