AROUND AMERICA
A chance encounter led to a few people having milkshakes. That led to a mentoring program. In turn, that mentoring program led to the creation of The 11-10-02 Foundation. When the foundation started, a rocking chair was our desk, a lunchbox was our briefcase, a shoebox was our bank and used cereal boxes were our filing cabinets. It's still a tiny organization, but over time, we've been able to make a small difference in many places. Look below to see a Milkshake Map of the United States indicating where we have funded grants and/or scholarships to help students with financial need. Beneath the map, there is an alphabetical list with more detail.
