The goal of Kindergartners Count, Inc., a U.S. 501(c)(3) international not-for-profit organization, is to empower children in many ways, such as to stay away from drugs and gangs and stay in school by showing them that learning can be fun. I Like Me! helps them to be healthy, successful young citizens. The personalized I Like Me! child's book is part of a classroom program.
