Team Awesome | The Awesome Code & Our To-Do List

// 01 ... The Awesome Code

While wearing A-BANDS,
leave the world a little better than you found it.

You don't have to complete them all. Just start with one.

Awesome starts with people.

Be the first person to say hello.

Make someone else's day a little brighter.

Give three genuine compliments to three different people.

Life's more fun when you lean into it.

Share your favorite joke.

Leave people and places better than you found them.

Hold the door open for someone.

One challenge from each column. One awesome day.

// 03 ... OUR GOALS (SERIOUSLY, HELP US GET THERE)

☐
Replace our delivery vehicles with minivans. With flames on the sides. Non-negotiable.
☐
Get a referee to wear one. During a game. We'll wait.
☐
Get politely asked to "tone it down" by at least one stadium. Decline respectfully.
☐
Become the official "why are they wearing that?" of something. Anything. We're flexible.
☐
Get name-dropped by a confused sports commentator on live TV. "What are those kids wearing?" Music to our ears.
☐
Make it onto a jumbotron. Get kissed on the kiss cam. Sunglasses stay on.
☐
Convince one professional athlete to warm up in A-BANDS. Just one. We're not greedy.
☐
Reach our first $500,000 donated to after-school youth sports and STEM programs. This one's the whole point.
☐
Build a STEM lab in a school that's never had one.
☐
Sponsor a robotics team all the way to a national championship. Robots in A-BANDS optional but encouraged.
☐
Send a busload of kids to their first pro game. Yes, the bus will have flames too.
☐
Fund 10,000 kids' first season of sports. Registration fees, gear, all of it.
☐
Have a kid we funded grow up and take our jobs. Seriously, we'll train you.
☐
Make sure every kid who wants to play sports or build robots gets the chance. Yes, we're aware of how impossible that sounds. We're doing it anyway.
