Kado Serri-Charette, Head of Brand and Growth at Tint Wiz, is the man leading the charity push tied to the Rob Schaller Classic.

The number that stopped the scroll

$6,500+. 30+ sponsors. One person running the play.

The tint internet did something this industry rarely does: it showed up with money, not just likes.

What Kado actually built

This is not a passive donation link sitting in a bio.

Serri-Charette turned a community idea into a sponsor-backed fundraiser — installers, distributors, educators, and creators all buying into the same headline: one person's life is about to change.

No corporate committee. No six-week approval chain. Just an operator who asked, built momentum, and kept moving.

The sponsor wall (yes, it's real)

When 30+ brands land on one grid — shops, film names, educators, media — that is not marketing theater.

That is coordination. The kind most trade groups talk about and rarely pull off this fast.

Why operators should care

  • Money talks: $6,500+ is real capital, not "sending prayers"
  • Speed: This moved faster than most brand campaigns with bigger budgets
  • Signal: Serri-Charette proved you do not need a booth at WFCT to mobilize an industry
  • Culture: Built Different. Built to Inspire. — and the room needed that reminder

The line worth stealing

Support their dreams like they're your own.

That is the whole playbook. Kado did not invent community. He gave it a deadline, a cause, and a reason to act.

Bottom line

The Rob Schaller Classic keeps building — competition, charity, and culture in one lane.

Kado Serri-Charette ran the play. The community answered.

30+ sponsors. $6,500+ raised. One life about to change.

Built different. Built to inspire.
