Keshaun Williams — Born May 21, 2008 · Missing since June 17, 2023 · Cleveland, Ohio (Slavic Village neighborhood). He would be 18 years old today. An AMBER Alert remains active. See official NCMEC missing poster →
June 17, 2023. Keshaun Williams was 15 years old, known to his family and friends as "Kee." He lived in Cleveland's Slavic Village neighborhood on the east side of the city. That night, he went to a house party.
Before he left, he texted his mother. He was coming home. He never arrived.
Keshaun was officially reported missing on June 20, 2023 — three days after he vanished, after family members and friends confirmed he had completely disappeared. On June 24, Cleveland Police issued an AMBER Alert. It is still active today. NCMEC
"He's always come home for church, never missed church. He goes to church every Sunday. He works at the church. I miss my child every day. I'm worried — I don't know if he is eating, if he is sleeping. I just want my child to come home."
What happened to Keshaun that night is not a complete mystery. Witnesses have told investigators that they saw something that should have broken this case open immediately: Keshaun was seen bound and beaten inside a dark-colored SUV.
A teenage boy. Tied up. Bleeding. In the back of a vehicle. Multiple witnesses. And still — no arrest. No suspect named publicly. No one charged.
The Cleveland Division of Police has worked the case. The FBI joined the investigation. The $27,500 reward has been active for over two years. And Keshaun has still not been found. Cleveland 19
The Family That Never StoppedKeshaun's mother, Sherice Snowden, and his grandmother, Mary K. Williams, have kept his name alive for more than two years. They have spoken to media. They have organized community searches. They have shown up — every time — to say his name when the city moved on.
The family has worked with Cleveland Missing, a nonprofit organization that partners with families to keep cases visible. Keshaun's story has been featured on Dateline NBC and in multiple national investigations into missing Black children and systemic gaps in how those cases are handled.
"I feel like they don't get to steal my joy. And Keshaun's spirit is living forever."
The detail investigators keep coming back to: a dark-colored SUV seen in the Slavic Village area on the night of June 17, 2023. Someone in that vehicle knows what happened to Keshaun. Possibly more than one person.
The witnesses who came forward already told police what they saw. What is needed now is someone who knows who was driving that SUV, or who was in it, or who saw where it went. Cleveland is not a small city. Someone knows something. Someone has been sitting on it for two years.
The reward is $27,500. The AMBER Alert is still active. Keshaun's family is still waiting.
Reward for Information Leading to Keshaun Williams
Combined reward — still active — Call Crime Stoppers or Cleveland Police
Call Cleveland Crime Stoppers →Keshaun Williams is not a statistic. He is a boy who texted his mother he was coming home, and who never walked through that door. His family has been fighting for him for more than two years. His grandmother is still standing. His mother is still speaking his name. And we will not let the world forget his face.
Witnesses saw what happened. Someone in Cleveland knows who was driving that dark SUV. If you are reading this, share this page. Say his name. The MCA Virtual Search Party™ has hundreds of thousands of members who show up for missing children every single week — and Keshaun is one of ours.

Kaidence Clyburn, 5, was reported missing from her Lee County home on October 30, 2026. Law enforcement from multiple agencies — along with K9 units, helicopters, and drone teams — searched through the night and into the following morning. On October 31, searchers found Kaidence safe approximately 300 yards behind her family's home. Investigators said there was no indication of foul play. The community had rallied overnight, with neighbors and volunteers joining the search.
Burlington Police and the Alamance County Sheriff's Office issued an endangered missing child alert for 16-year-old Mikal Jones on October 11, 2026. Within hours, public tips helped law enforcement locate and confirm the teen safe. Authorities credited community awareness and the rapid spread of the alert on social media for the quick resolution. This case is a direct example of what happens when a community pays attention and acts fast.
An El Paso County Sheriff's SWAT team found a toddler safe on October 8, 2026 — nearly a year after the child was reported missing in November 2025. The child's mother, Aleyha Murphy (30), and grandfather, David McGhee (54), were arrested and face charges of child abuse and conspiracy to commit kidnapping. Investigators said family members had concealed the child's location and misled law enforcement throughout the months-long search. The toddler was found unharmed.

"Every child matters. Every prayer counts. Every action makes a difference."
Missing Child Alert is a faith-driven awareness platform built on a simple, unshakeable conviction: no missing child should ever be forgotten, and no family should ever feel like they are searching alone. We are a community of believers and concerned citizens who refuse to look away. This site exists to keep names in front of eyes, stories in front of hearts, and urgency in front of communities across America.
We are not a government agency or law enforcement body. We are people of faith who believe that awareness saves lives — and that every share, every post, every conversation brings a child one step closer to home.
We believe in the power of prayer — not as a last resort, but as a first response. Prayer moves hearts. It opens doors that logic cannot unlock. It guides the feet of strangers toward answers that investigators sometimes cannot find. We have seen it happen, and we believe it will keep happening.
But we also believe, as James 2:17 reminds us, that faith without works is dead. Prayer and action are not opposites — they are partners. We pray, and then we move. We ask God for guidance, and then we share the alert. We lift up the family in our hearts, and then we answer the call. Together, prayer and action form a force that no darkness can withstand.
Our mission is to serve as a bridge between missing child alerts and the communities that can act on them. We amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard. We equip families and concerned citizens with the resources they need. And we work to foster a nationwide network of people who are paying attention — because the next person who sees something and says something might be the reason a child comes home.
We cover breaking news, found-safe stories, awareness articles, and safety resources — all in one place, freely accessible to anyone who cares enough to show up.
Right now, thousands of children across this country are missing. Their parents are awake at night. Their siblings are waiting. Law enforcement is searching. And somewhere, someone might have the piece of the puzzle that brings them home.
We invite you to pray specifically: pray for the children by name, for the families holding on by faith, for investigators to be guided to answers, and for anyone who holds information to find the courage to contact law enforcement. Then act — share an alert, spread this site, call 911 or NCMEC if you know something, or simply tell one person. God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. You could be one of them.
