To The Kansas City Community At the end of 2019, Community LINC had a clear vision to end homelessness in our community. Before Covid-19 invaded our lives, connecting and stabilizing families in affordable housing was clearly in our sights: but the virus changed that. Led by safe practices against group gatherings, and a renewed, razor-sharp commitment to our mission, Community LINC has made a strategic decision that impacts RENT PARTY 2020. The surges in coronavirus cases guided our extraordinary leadership teams and our 2020 HOMETOWN HERO HONOREE, Christine Kemper, to forgo a live or virtual Rent Party this year. We will sharpen our focus to flood resources to the most vulnerable families among us and do so responsibly, as THE NUMBER OF HOMELESS FAMILIES IN KANSAS CITY INCREASES DAILY. We invite you to be a part of the solution and support our ‘ONE STEP AWAY’ CAMPAIGN which includes an online auction, benefiting families and children who find themselves homeless during these extraordinarily difficult times. This digital and direct mail fundraising initiative and online auction will rollout across the city and on social media lasting until late fall. This campaign will also give us the opportunity to honor Christine Kemper, a civic and philanthropic icon, and co-founder of Kansas City Girls Preparatory Academy, as well as highlight the impactful work of Community LINC. We are immensely grateful to our Event Co-chairs, our Honorary Co-chairs, and our Board of Directors for their guidance. We are thankful to you, Kansas City. You’ve strengthened our resolve to ensure all KC families have a place to call home. With your support, we are one step away from truly transforming lives. #OneStepAway Precious Stargell Cushman, Chief Executive Officer Teresa McClain, Director of Development Contact: RentParty@communitylinc.org Event Consultation & Management Eventology LLC | Donna Thomason
