KAO Family Foundation
Dear Kao Family,
Thank you for the opportunity to invite the KAO Family Foundation to partner with Reconciliation Services! Below you can see two options for potential sponsorship and participation in our "Reveal Strength" Capital campaign:
1. The first sponsorship opportunity is to open the "RS Center for Reconciliation Sponsored by the Kao family". Located at the corner of 31st and Troost in Kansas City, MO. This 100 person event center, with access to a beautiful rooftop garden overlooking downtown Kansas City, will host events for more than 4,300 clients in need as well as thousands in the business and civic community each year. Exterior and interior signage as well as ongoing social media included.
2. The second sponsorship opportunity is to sponsor the main entrance to Thelma's Kitchen. The primary entrance to our innovative "donate-what-you-can cafe", Thelma's Kitchen receives thousands of people a week. In the last three years we have served over 78,000 meals to the community! This is a vibrant space that brings together both the homeless and working poor, as well as the local community and volunteers. It is truly a program that is addressing the 19% food insecurity in our city, while also building bridges between communities - across historic racial, economic and geographic barriers. Signage in entry included.
With your support we can transform Troost Avenue from a dividing line into a gathering place and reveal the strength of our community!
