Who we are
Welcome to 2 in 2 out, a 501(c) (3) Nonprofit, where we believe in the power of community and brotherhood/sisterhood. Our journey began with a simple idea: to support and stand with each other, creating a space where everyone feels valued and empowered.
How We Started
The story of 2 in 2 out began in 2023 when our founders, Robert Kirkendall, with over 30 years of service in the Fire/EMS field, and Dione Kirkendall, with over 20 years in 911 service, recognized the need for a group that fosters genuine connections and mutual support. Inspired by the camaraderie and solidarity in their own family and fire family, they set out to create a space where individuals can come together, share their experiences, and lift each other up.
Our Mission and Vision
At 2 in 2 out, our mission is to build a strong, supportive community where everyone can find encouragement and assistance. We envision a world where no one has to face their challenges alone, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive through the support of their peers.
Our Values
Our core values guide everything we do. We believe in:
Community: Building a network of support where everyone feels a sense of belonging.
Brotherhood/Sisterhood: Fostering deep connections and solidarity among our members.
Empathy: Understanding and sharing the feelings of others.
Empowerment: Providing the tools and support needed for individuals to succeed.
Our Impact
Since our inception, 2 in 2 out has made significant strides in fostering a sense of community and brotherhood. We have created a platform that serves as a vital resource for individuals seeking support and companionship. Our community has grown and thrived, with countless stories of people lifting each other up and finding the strength to face their challenges together.
Thank you for being part of our story. We look forward to growing with you and continuing to build a community where everyone can thrive together.
