The Ali Kemp Educational Foundation was founded in 2002 by Roger and Kathy Kemp in honor of their daughter Alexandra Kemp (Ali to everyone who knew her) who was murdered while working at a neighborhood pool in Johnson County, Kansas.Ali was a beautiful and caring nineteen-year-old girl who represented the finest of her generation. She excelled in school, in sports and served as a volunteer giving generously of her time and talents to many endeavors.She was a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority at Kansas State University where she had completed her freshman year.

T.A.K.E. Defense serves as a legacy to Ali's life and has trained over 20,000 girls and women ages 12 years and older with FREE safety awareness and hands-on self defense training. T.A.K.E. Defense carries its message and training locally and across the United States each year to communities, colleges, and universities and has been featured on America's Most Wanted, ABC's "20/20" and CBS Prime Time along with numerous local and regional news casts.

Mr. Kemp’s comments resonate the purpose of T.A.K.E. Defense training; “Our goal is clear, if we can save one life out there, I don't care what it costs, our whole program will be worth it."
