This is extremely exciting news for our organization. Thankyou so much to those who have spent many hours poring over paperwork to get to this point.

This status means that we can receive donations that are tax-deductible and apply for grants to raise funds for our future goals (namely a community space!)

We are ever grateful for the fantastic amounts of support we have received from the community of Kalamazoo. Thanks a lot!

If you’re interested in helping us out, come to one of our meetings and see what we’ve been up to. Our next one is at 315 Walnut St. and it starts at 9:30!

Also, i’d like to bring to your guys’ attention the benefit show we have coming up at the Peace Center on Western’s campus. It starts at 6p and will feature: Jes Kramer, Fiona Dickinson, Paucity, and Crash City Saints. There is a suggested $5 donation.

I hope to see all of you there, it’s going to be a fantastic show.
