Sparking Change one heart at a time. ❤️ 

Every parent wants to know their child is safe — not just at home, but everywhere they go. We’re building a community of moms, dads, and caregivers who believe in creating safer spaces for our kids, starting with our patented, NIJ IIIA-tested SPARK® Shield — a bullet-resistant backpack insert proudly made in the USA to help protect what matters most.

The Spark Project was founded by a mom on a mission who understands the worries we all carry. This isn’t just a product — it’s a movement of parents coming together to stand for our children’s safety, confidence, and future. Together, we’re sparking hope, protection, and meaningful change — one heart at a time.

This fight is all of ours.

Here’s to sparking change.

The SPARK™ Shield

Our patented  SPARK® Shield can be personalized by your child and fits seamlessly into their backpack amongst their other school supplies. Our product was developed in conjunction with Bigger Tuna and The Ohio State University. It’s proudly made in Ohio and has been tested in accordance with the NIJ IIIA standard which stops hand gun bullets.

They are your children, my children, our children. 

What We Do

Society needs to tackle a myriad of issues to protect our children against school shootings—gun safety, mental health and more.

The Spark Project® has created bullet-resistant, folder-sized shields easily transported in backpacks. 

Our Mission

Our mission is to protect our kids and communities with innovative products while igniting positive social change.

We’re in this together.

Because we’re committed to making an impact, a portion of our proceeds is donated to the Sandy Hook Promise Foundation. We believe this fight is all of ours. Here’s to sparking change.
