K4K INTERNATIONAL CORP.

What K4K INTERNATIONAL CORP. does

K4K International Corp., operating as Kutz4Kids Inc., is a 501c3 nonprofit founded in 2013 by Justin Tutt and headquartered at 115 Rudy St., Rome, Georgia. The organization delivers youth empowerment programs to children and young adults (primarily ages 5-18) in underserved communities through three core programs: Hero In Me (hero-themed workshops for children 5-11), Sidekick Mentoring (college-student-led mentoring), and Day In College (campus-based higher-education exposure expeditions). It reaches beneficiaries through a four-tier "hero" ecosystem that spans Young Heroes (end beneficiaries), College Heroes (mentors), Professional Heroes (career exposure volunteers), and Community Heroes (corporate and community sponsors).

K4K operates an event-driven, human-delivered model with no proprietary technology platform. The organization runs no commercial products or services; revenue consists of tax-deductible individual donations (processed via PayPal and checks), corporate grants (e.g., The Clorox Company), and foundation grants (e.g., Heart of the Community Foundation). Programs are delivered directly into communities ("we bring the events to your community") via partnerships with schools, libraries, community centers, and universities, including a documented Kennesaw State University Day In College program and a Cobb County Library System summer tour. K4K claims reach of 1,500+ students and 3,000+ parents per professional event cycle, though no financial figures are disclosed.

The organization is founder-led with a small named leadership team (CEO Justin Tutt, COO Jarvis Collins, CFO Warren Pettis, plus directors of Funding, Marketing, HR, and Public Relations). Major partners include the Atlanta Braves (Community Hero sponsor), The Clorox Company (first corporate grant), Heart of the Community Foundation (foundation grant), Cobb County Library System, and Kennesaw State University. Geographic scope is regional within Georgia (Rome, Cobb County, and broader Southeast), and the organization shows no material expansion beyond local community delivery.
