BE a Recurring Donor & Help Kenzie’s Break Even!

Kenzie’s Be Cafe is looking for 100 people to donate $20/month as a recurring donor. We are currently at 65 recurring donors. Please consider becoming a donor!

 These funds will help Kenzie’s break even freeing up more time for job skills training. In addition, Kenzie’s Be could use the help of a fund development person and an administrative assistant. If we could raise the funds needed to cover the cost of these positions, we estimate, at a minimum, we could double our impact through job opportunities.
