Who I Am:
Hi everyone! My name is Steph Kinney. I’m 23 years old and I live in Blackwood, NJ. I’m a music lover and a graduate student.
My position at Feed Our Children NOW!:
I’m the Food Drive Coordinator. If you are interested in holding a food (or cellphone) drive in your city please email localdrives@feedourchildrennow.org. I also help with the Financial Literacy Program at the Boys and Girls Club in Camden. When we collect money at Warped the money gets deposited into accounts for disadvantaged children. We have developed a program to help the children put more money in their accounts by making beaded bracelets.
How I got here:
I volunteered at the Camden date on Warped 2012. It was there that I met Lana Posner the founder of Feed Our Children NOW! After Warped Tour, I sent an email to her about getting more involved. She wanted me to get in contact with some other members of the Feed Our Children NOW! team. After a few months of emails and phone conferences, they mentioned they were in need of someone to coordinate food drives. I volunteered to take on this role and I’m so glad that I did. I love the Feed Our Children NOW! family.
When I’m not working on Feed Our Children NOW! work…
I currently work as a receptionist at a tattoo shop. I’m also finishing up my second semester of graduate school in the School Counseling program at Rowan University. When I’m not at work or at school, you can probably find me at the gym or at a local park. I love running and exercising! I also really love going to concerts - I try to go to at least one a month; there’s nothing like live music.
Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped Tour:
VersaEmerge, The Used and The Early November! My favorite band off Warped is Paramore (been a fan since 2005), I’m so bummed they aren’t on Warped this year!

Who I Am:
Hey-o! My name is Vicki, I’m 21 years old and reside in St. Petersburg, FL.
My position at Feed Our Children NOW!:
I am co-volunteer coordinator at Feed Our Children NOW!
What that means:
Hailey and I respond to volunteer emails, keep track of all the info, and stay in contact with volunteers all year round and day to day on Warped Tour.
How I got here:
I was intrigued by Feed Our Children NOW! after seeing them several times at Warped Tour and decided to email them on ways I could be a part of the team. I was thankfully welcomed into their family and given the responsibility I have now.
What do you do when you’re not doing Feed Our Children NOW! work?:
During the day I work at Daddy Kool Records, located in the downtown St. Pete area. At night I am a runner or do merch for local venues. Between those two jobs I have to find time to manage a local band (Lights at Night) and put on my own shows.
Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped Tour:
I’m really excited to see Bring Me the Horizon, 3OH!3, August Burns Red, The Sheds, & letlive.

If you have any questions for Vicki make sure to send us a tweet @FeedOurChildren, send them to our Ask box on tumblr, or comment on our facebook!
Who I am:
Howdy! I’m Colleen, a 23 year old psychology student residing in Atlanta, GA but trying to plan a quick escape around the country. I’m a ball of energy and spend way too much time watching Big Bang Theory, having conversations with my dog, screaming my lungs out at shows, having random dance parties, and working on photos.
My position at Feed Our Children NOW!:
I’m the social media “intern” for Feed Our Children NOW! and the newest kid to the team.
What that means is:
It means that I get to hang out on twitter! My main job is to come up with ways to get all of you, our awesome supporters, more involved in with Feed Our Children NOW through social media. I help out with posting on facebook, tumblr, twitter, and (once Warped Tour kicks off) our flickr page!
How I got here:
I had seen Feed Our Children NOW a bunch of times on Warped Tour, but a friend sent me an email about them earlier this year. After a few phone calls they liked my ideas and gave me the opportunity to work closer with them. I’m so glad they did!
What do you do when you’re not doing Feed Our Children work?:
If anyone takes a look at my planner they’ll likely see chaos. But, on the off chance there aren’t 15 different colours of ink strewn across the pages you’re likely to find me at a concert, behind my camera, sleeping, watching Big Bang Theory, playing with my dog, or trying to learn how to play guitar. I love to finish each day reading and I’m currently reading Looking for Alaska by John Green.
Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped Tour:
Warped Tour is my favourite part of the year - it’s better than Christmas! I’m most excited to see my favourite bands from Michigan; We Came as Romans and I See Stars. I’m also excited for Hands Like Houses, Go Radio, Hawthorne Heights, Sleeping with Sirens, Memphis May Fire, Bring Me the Horizon, and Relient K…just to name a few.
If you look at my iPod you’ll currently find the new Bring Me the Horizon album “Sempiternal” as well as Twenty | One | Pilots new album “Vessel” playing almost all the time.
I’ll be out on a few days of Warped Tour this summer so if you see me make sure to say hi!
Make sure to meet my friends Kiana and Hailey!
