About

I grew up in upstate New York, received my Bachelor’s Degree from Salisbury University, and have called Colorado my home for the past 30 years. I founded Kramerica Gives because I believe every student deserves the opportunities and access to resources that can bring out the best in them. When I’m not working with students or organizing events, I’m either on the tennis court, in a movie theatre or enjoying time with friends and family.

Testimonials

Marcie Lord

Founder, Digital Dynamo LLC

"I have gotten to meet and chat with the students that participate in Kramerica Gives, and their stories really demonstrate what a life changer this program can be. Kramerica Gives has helped them graduate head of their class, go to college, and find refuge outside of their tough home lives.

But I have to say, the story that I have always found to be the most compelling is how Kipp and the Kramerica Gives team helped one of their students move into college ahead of her first year there. She didn't have anyone from her family who could help her. For most people who go away to college, move-in is very nerve-wracking, or even scary, and to not have anyone there to help you with that transition sounds heartbreaking. But Kramerica Gives came to the rescue.

I donate to Kramerica Gives because this organization is making a huge difference and using its money wisely. Kipp really knows how to run a great organization that really helps!"

Mentor

Kramerica Gives does a wonderful job of connecting students with mentors who care about them and meet them where they're at. It also connect students with peers from other high schools allowing them to build community as they navigate sometimes challenging high school dynamics and transitions. I've valued my time as a mentor and the students that I've been able to support and learn from. Highly recommend for parents looking for thoughtful enriching opportunities for their students and for professionals looking to make an impact and be impacted.
