Children Need Both Parents

“Chad Ehlers is the founder and creator of the Chad Change. In the midst of the Covid19 pandemic in 2020, Chad decided to leave nursing and become a full-time social media influencer. He then created the Chad Change with the idea of helping others who were looking for a safe place to find support and express their feelings. What began as a small group of 5, has now reached a countless number of people throughout the world. In 2021, Chad was officially verified on Instagram, and he had reached over 2.8 million followers on TikTok.

Soon after joining social media, Chad’s youngest daughter, Mia, was diagnosed with Leukemia; she was just a year old. While the news was undoubtedly devastating, Chad felt inspired to begin using his social media platform to spread awareness and raise money for childhood cancer research, other families with gofundme charity and hospitalized children. He graciously shares with his followers Mia's journey, and also travels around the United States hosting charity events with the Chad Change to raise money for local children’s hospitals live streaming via Tiktok, instagram, twitter, YouTube and Google.

Chad is a firm believer in spreading kindness,and helping others. He uses his own life experiences, as well as Mia's journey, to inspire and motivate others. Chad firmly believes that, “It’s not about your past, or even your current situation. It’s what you do for someone else’s future that matters.”
