About

Scott Sullivan – Caring 4 Kids Foundation Founder

An entrepreneur from his first venture, Sullivan was only 28 years old when he and his older brother founded Fuelman of Baton Rouge, a fleet management company, which they built into a thriving and successful business.

In addition to his business acumen, Sullivan also is a successful personal and professional development coach as well as inspiring motivational speaker who uses lessons learned from his own life to encourage growth and success in others.

He has spoken in front of more than 3,300 groups and corporations in the U.S.A, Australia, Mexico, London and the Bahamas where the focal point of his instruction was based on leadership skills, team building exercises and how to make a difference in your business and personal life.

When confronted with the devastation of hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005 in his hometown of Baton Rouge, Sullivan immediately organized teams of community members, family and friends to collect a variety of resources. These teams, led by Sullivan, provided thousands of displaced victims with basic needs items. These giving volunteers, as facilitated by Sullivan, fed more than 20,000 people within the first 60 days following the landfall of hurricane Katrina.

Using his own funds to start a charity he called Corps of Compassion, his was one of the first organizations to physically get water and supplies into New Orleans. Sullivan and his teams worked side-by-side with emergency crews and other volunteers to aid victims. Sullivan lived in shelters with evacuees and began to try to fill as many of their needs as possible. Corps of Compassion helped tens of thousands of evacuees, first responders and citizens of New Orleans by creating a grassroots effort to bring immediate aid and information to them.

When his mission of helping displaced families was accomplished, Scott began a new program to help the homeless and at-risk children of Las Vegas, Nevada.

Those incidents and the subsequent suffering that followed the need solidified Sullivan´s philanthropic philosophy: Feed someone and save a life. That philosophy quickly became the grassroots organization Caring 4 Kids Foundation, which today feeds more than 480 elementary school aged children each weekend.

As a tribute to his efforts, Corps of Compassion was honored as the 2006 Best Community Service Organization by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
