Helping Others

Because of the amazing work of Kelsey’s parents, Greg and Missey Smith, there is now a federal law that mandates cellphone companies to give necessary information for missing or kidnapped children. Not only is the law followed by 22 states, the foundation has also given a number of safety awareness seminars. The Smith’s have also created the Safety Whistle Program, which buys and distributes 7,000 whistles to those who attend the seminars.

Kelsey’s Army

During the 4-day search for Kelsey from the time she was abducted, her family and loved ones started what they called Kelsey’s Army. This encompassed the group of individuals who were part Kelsey’s search party. According to her father Greg, who was proud of the group who assembled Kelsey’s Army, “Her birthday is still a happy time, a celebration. June 2-6 was the time she was missing, and I don’t like those dates. I’m glad when this period of time is over.”
