Nolan Fleming is the President for the Sioux Falls, South Dakota chapter of “Simon Says Give”. At the age of 9, Nolan decided he wanted to partner with Mandi Simon and her charitable foundation and bring the programs to Sioux Falls. He had a vision to help others in his school and community and make an impact on the lives of children in need.

“Simon Says Give” is a nonprofit group based in Minnesota. They support Kids Celebrating Kids in three ways: birthday celebrations for kids in need, Kids In Action leadership training and their annual High Five for Supplies. They are a kid-founded and kid-operated organization preparing leaders for tomorrow by developing the next generation of leaders to be unstoppable.

Nolan is now organizing “High Five for Supplies” in his local community. This is a backpack and school supply drive for children in need. The first year the program supported 50 children with the help of local businesses and grassroots efforts, and by its’ 4th year, has helped over 16,000 children. Nolan is diligent at getting volunteers and businesses to donate time and merchandise for the backpacks. His leadership ability and goals are to be commended.
