Richard Davis - Director
Richard is married, the father of a son and has two stepchildren. He started a Watch Dog program at his son's elementary school. He liked the idea of fathers and male role models being more involved in their child's life and school day. He was excited to be able to start this program and saw the success and difference it made in the kids' lives. He voluntarily teaches the Boot Camp for New Dads at St. Francis Hospital. He likes being able to share his experience as a dad and also provide valuable information to new dads. He is employed with the Target Distribution Center and was awarded the Best in Community Award in 2014. Richard believes in giving back and helping out in the community. He believes it's been an honor to have been selected to be on the KFAST board.

Brenda Davis - Director

Brenda is married to Richard – who also serves on our board. Brenda saw what KFAST was doing with schools in Kansas and wanted to join the board. When an opportunity opened up – she was honored to become a part of the KFAST Board. Brenda previously worked at Hill’s Pet Nutrition for 29+ years before deciding to take a different career path. While Richard was busy during the day at school volunteering, Brenda was behind the scenes at night helping teachers; from gluing art projects, to sharpening containers of pencils, tearing out pages from workbooks and stapling them together. Both Richard and Brenda were room parents for their youngest until he entered his high school years. Brenda believes very strongly in community support, volunteering and helping in any way you can to ensure the success of all children across Kansas.
