Khloe Kares – Interview with Mom & Daughters Inc
Tell me your name and your business name
Khloe Thompson and my business is Khloe Kares
What does your business do?
Khloe Kares is a nonprofit organization where we distribute “Kares bags” to the homeless community. Our bags have over 25 items in them filled with bare necessities that homeless women would need
How did you get the original idea?
The idea started on my way to school. I would see a lot of homeless people and I asked my mom why or how they got there. So it made me sad. So I wanted to do something to help them.
What are your favorite things about being young, female and entrepreneurial?
I think my favorite thing is inspiring other kids to do something or start a business.
Any disadvantages that you’ve faced?
So far no. Now that I’m back in school we just have to work around my school schedule.
Any advice for young female entrepreneurs who are still just planning or thinking about starting a business?
“Don’t let your age stop you from doing what you want to do” I tell everyone that. You can do it! Just go out there and get it done!!
