Working at BKFK

BKFK is an exciting web company dedicated to helping kids make their dreams into reality. We have an exciting opportunity for the right person to get in early in a rapidly growing company and make a difference.

BKFK recognizes the ingenuity and creativity that kids possess. We know that while kids and teens have great ideas, they often have no path available to real life expression of their ideas. We provide the support needed for kids to create great ideas and connect them to reality – through competition, social networking, and product assistance.

We are starting an exciting new phase of development and growth, expanding our reach and web presence with a re-launch in September 2007 and we need creative, energized minds to help us show young people a path from idea to reality.
