Our Story
In the bustling city of Las Vegas, Nevada, a young entrepreneur named Dylen Richmond had a vision that went beyond ordinary business success. He recognized the education gap faced by students in his own classrooms and grew compelled to take action.
My teachers, they would buy their own school supplies, and they wouldn't get paid back for that, so I just decided to build my own business. - Dylen Richmond
Armed with determination and a heart full of compassion, Dylen founded Accelkids Teaching and Learning Tools.
He designed school supply kits, which he called "Power Packs" and sold them at the local Swap Meet. Once purchased, the packs were donated to low-income area students. In the first campaign drive, 331 school supply packs were purchased by donors and provided to students in the Historic West Las Vegas area.
From its humble beginnings, Accelkids quickly gained recognition for its innovative approach to addressing educational disparities. Dylen's passion and commitment caught the attention of local news outlets, spreading the word about his mission to bridge the education gap. Donations poured in, and Accelkids flourished as a non-profit organization.

Driven by a belief in equal opportunities for all children, Accelkids focused on critical subjects like Reading, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), Business, Finance, and Black History. By making these resources accessible to students regardless of their economic backgrounds, Accelkids aims to empower them with the knowledge and skills needed to thrive in the modern world.
With each successful distribution of donations, Accelkids witnessed the transformational impact of their efforts.
