OUR COMPASS: 2020 - 2026
From conception to national movement, Kid Admiral has built bridges to connection one community at a time.
2020: CONCEPTION
Kid Admiral was an Instagram moniker coined by Founder, De'Andre McMillian.
In 2020, Kid Admiral was later developed into a transformative concept by its Co-Founder, Actress and Creative Director, TAMARA.
2023: FIRST PROJECT INITIATIVE
The Long Road Home begins.
Pre-production launched on our debut documentary—a film about De'Andre McMillian, a 20-year-old who sustained a traumatic brain injury, and his family and community's journey through memory, grief, connection and healing.
10,000’s Raised
Community Investment, Corporate Gifts and Individual donors made the film premier possible.
Through the GoFundMe platform, faith-based partnerships, local organization sponsorships, and individual donations, Kid Admiral raised $10,000 to support post-production costs and the Kid Admiral Legacy Awards Ceremony.
The Journey begins and the film takes shape.
Months of editing, sound design, and refinement transformed raw footage into a powerful meditation on loss, love, and what it means to walk one another home.

The Inaugural Kid Admiral Legacy and Awards
The premiere and awards ceremony opened with a moving invocation from Pastor Dion Culliver, who drew a profound parallel to the biblical story of Abel, noting that like this ancient testament to faith, De'Andre McMillian's legacy continues to speak to and inspire the community he left behind.
The evening's resonance deepened with Dr. Lett, Coastal Alabama Community College Campus Director, who delivered a compelling address about the illuminating power of individual impact. Her stirring message challenged the audience to consider their own legacies, culminating in a powerful question that echoed through the room:
"What do we want others to say about the lives we've led when we are no longer here?"
Mayor Andrew, Monroeville Alabama, was among the distinguished recipients of the Kid Admiral Legacy Awards.
