Kristie & Jason are the Founders of You Matter Archie. They have been married for 24 years and have four children. They founded You Matter Archie after they lost their son, Hunter, to suicide. Kristie is the President of the You Matter Archie Organization and works tirelessly to achieve so many things, coordinating with school and the Board to get events and resources out to the community.
Kristie loves to craft when there is time in her busy existence! They have two amazing dogs that keep them busy. Kristie enjoys TV when she can too, she loves all of the Chicago series shows; Med, Fire, PD. Her favorite parts of YMA are greeting students on You Matter Days each month, all of the free events that YMA puts on for our students and knowing that we are making a difference. Jason enjoys the outdoors and all things nature! He enjoys hiking and target shooting with friends. Jason likes fishing and canoeing when it’s warm enough!
Together, Jason and Kristie share a common goal with You Matter Archie: Reach as many are in need of resources to help save lives. Even if You Matter Archie reaches one youth who is struggling, that is one saved. The overall goal would be a You Matter Organization in every school!
