Kalamazoo, MI, March 1 st 2023 –

Part of the company's mission is that way out is through -- and that individuals will with any

challenges, must face issues and KEEP PACE in their own process. Additionally, KEEP PACE's

values of community and leadership with the promotional method of experiential events.

Mark L. Mathews, CEO of FLUSH Promotions has been involved in the Autism Speaks

community as a brand ambassador and Team Captain in major cities such as Florida, Indy,

Chicago, and Detroit for the past seven years.

“I have a passion for mental health and growing as an individual,” states Mathews, “Rather

then focus on the boxes that so narrowly define what a person ‘has' or is diagnosed with, we

can talk about these experiences openly in our daily lives. The issues we each face are filled

with complexity, and they are not so easily captured under the boxed categories that society

asks us to subscribe to. Often time's members of our society are overlooked or looked down

upon for their issues without individuals fully understanding their story, or even asking about it.

We believe instead that there is value in those very things that challenge us and give us

difficulty because ultimately, they are what makes us the very person that we are today. “

“We will emphasize a relaxed and informal environment for the event.” Mathews continues,

“Yes, we want the conversations to move mental health issues forward, however, we are not

concerned with pushing or selling any ideologies, thus we guarantee with our events the spread

of KEEP PACE will flow organically through word of mouth and social media.”

Continuing the conversation is Mathews' newly launched Memoir entitled ‘?QuestionMark?',

which takes you into a mental health guide-line truth-telling conversations, poems, and about

past and present. Mathews recalls his own experiences visiting mental health clinics and

having suicidal thoughts, along with his quest to become knowledgeable in identifying with

emotional insecurity and having conversations with others about the experiences that

transpired in his life as a character.
