Who leads this.

Kutoa is student-founded. Nathan Carlson is Founder and President. Officer and national Advocate roles open to members who have served.

To the next generation of Advocates,

When I founded Kutoa, I had no idea where it would take me. What started as a desire to help one person taught me this: you do not have to wait until you are older, more experienced, or more powerful to do something that matters.

That is why Kutoa Advocates exists. I want more young people to stop asking whether they’re old enough and simply start.

This is not another club for a résumé. It’s serving your community, raising money for something you believe in, sitting in a room with people who care as much as you do — and, as we grow beyond Cleveland, knowing an Advocate hundreds of miles away.

Join a chapter. Start one. Come to a meeting. Bring a friend. You don’t need an impressive title, or everything figured out. You just need to care enough to begin.

Kutoa has been one of the greatest blessings of my life. There is a lot left to build.

Come build it with us.

With hope and gratitude,

Nathan Carlson

Every chapter is led by students. These are the ones holding the rooms together.
