Lamar and Ronnie Tyler, Co-Founders of Black and Married With Kids (BMWK), the largest African American marriage and parenting site on the web, today announced a partnership with Black and Missing Foundation, Inc. (BAM FI) in an effort to help find and bring to attention the thousands of missing persons of color.
Beginning, Monday October 31, profiles of missing African American, Hispanic and Asian men, women and children will be featured weekly on BMWK Website (BlackandMarriedWithKids.com) and social media outlets. The profiles will be provided from BAM FI database and will be accompanied by information on the missing persons.
“We’re excited to partner with the Black and Missing Foundation in an effort to raise awareness about missing persons of color who may not receive high volumes of media attention but need our help nonetheless,” said Lamar Tyler, co-founder of Black and Married With Kids. “This partnership will allow us to leverage our large online community which is built on social media for the efforts of social good.”
“The disappearance of a loved one has a profound impact on families and the community,” said Derrica Wilson, president and CEO of Black and Missing Foundation, Inc. “This partnership is an excellent platform that will allow us to get the word out about our missing mothers, fathers and children to the community at large.”
