Your budget for cash is 300 dollars and people have
donated. And we’ve also taken extra money out.
Right.
So, let's just see how much more the items on the list will
be. I think you should get at least five more hero bags,
socks. Everything is set now and good to go. We have our
list. We know exactly what the veterans need at
MCVET. Does that sound like a plan?
Sure!
Alright!
((NATS))
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
So, we are going to shop for the veterans and get some
toiletries and some things that they would need to go to the
homeless veterans’ shelter.
((NATS: Tyler Stallings & Andrea Blackstone))
How about some men’s socks, ladies’ socks? Do you want
single socks or bag socks?
Bag socks will probably be good.
Okay. So, you are ready?
Yep!
Alright, let’s grab us a cart and get moving. How about that?
Okay.

Tyler raises money from things he sells himself such as his
book, items on his website. But he also gets a lot of support
now from crowd funding and people who invest in the idea of
giving back to veterans. There have been churches lately
that donate as well financially.
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
My name is Tyler Stallings. I am eight years old and I am
the CEO of Kid Time Enterprises. So, Kid Time Enterprises
is a business and also a charity.
((Andrea Blackstone, Tyler’s Mother))
When Tyler was four years old, I happened to show him
some videos about veterans. We are from a family of
veterans. My father served, my brother and grandfather and
so many other people. And I just thought it would be nice for
him to understand what a veteran is. I didn't expect him,
when he was so young, to latch on to the idea that some
veterans were homeless, which he saw on some of the
videos.
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
I help homeless veterans because I feel it. You know they
served our country. It's not fair for them to be out in the
street. I wrote a book called Tyler Goes Around the
World. It's about me going around the world and making
sure that people being kind to each other and making
friends. Every sale, some of the profit goes to help veterans.
((Andrea Blackstone, Tyler’s Mother))
Kid Time Enterprises is a company that I started for Tyler to
empower him as a young person. I wanted him to grow up
understanding that he is not just a consumer in the world but
he should produce things and save money along the
way. So, it's a way for him to express himself through things
that he comes up with, such as writing books, creating
t-shirts, anything creative he wants to do to sell.
((NATS))
((Andrea Blackstone, Tyler’s Mother))
We also get donations from churches, individuals and stores.
Today, we are picking up a donation from a store.
((NATS: Tyler Stallings & Store Donors))
This is my thank you card for the donation.
Oh, great. Thank you so much. This is awesome. Very
much appreciate it, your nice signature too. Good job.
You’re ready? Okay.
Okay, you take the big pile. That weighs less.
Good pile, good pile in there.
Good pile, good pile in there.
Do you think you can get all these in one box?
Yeah.
Good! Let’s see if we can close it.
Just draw. Where are we going? Let us go out this
way. We are going to put it in the car.
Okay.
Don’t trip. Good man.
((Stewart Cohen, Owner, Armed Forces Gear))
We just love his cause and the young man with a lot of spirit
and feeling a responsibility to help out people that might
need help. And we are happy to be partnering with him.
((NATS))
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
We are packing these bags to give them to the homeless
veterans. I think we're going to deliver over 50 hero bags
plus many more hero boxes tomorrow.
((NATS: Tyler Stallings & Andrea Blackstone))
Two hundred and sixty dollars!
Wow, from a school in California. That will really help you
out Tyler, to buy some more things.
Yes!
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
When I do fundraising, if someone says no, that means one
closer to a yes.
((NATS))
Slowly, slowly, slowly.
((Andrea Blackstone, Tyler’s Mother))
We thought this would be a one-time thing, but we’ve been
doing it over four years.
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
I also like to read because it makes you smart.
((NATS))
At this time, I would like to introduce you to an eight year old
superhero, Mr. Tyler Stallings.
Thank you, young man.
You are welcome. Thank you for your service.
Thank you.
Thank you, buddy.
You are welcome.
Appreciate it. Give me bones. Alright.
It’s like Christmas.
((Steven Blevins, Navy Veteran))
Tyler is a great guy. I will be scared to death to be doing
what he's doing right now. For an eight-year old, he’s got a
charitable heart. I think we can all learn something from
Tyler in that regards.
((Cereta Spencer, Community Engagement Director,
Maryland Center for Veterans Education and Training))
Tyler brings smiles to the Maryland Center for Veterans
Education and Training. Whenever he comes in with in kind
donations and gifts, he brings a wonderful light to their eyes.
((NATS))
Thank you so much.
You are welcome.
((Tyler Stallings, CEO, Kid Time Enterprises))
I do not think that I am too young to do this project because
anybody can do this. No one has to have a big pile of
money or be a millionaire or have a fortune. People can
start from their own backyard, their own house. I plan to
keep this project up and keep it running as long as I can do
it.
((NATS))
Thank you, man.
You are welcome.
