Keep Equal Minded Alive

Dear friends and supporters,

Equal Minded Café, a beacon of hope and connection in the Troost neighborhood, needs your urgent help. Our mission has always been to unite communities and uplift everyone who walks through our doors, fostering a space where all are welcome, respected, and inspired. Today, we are facing a severe challenge that threatens our ability to continue this vital work.

Last night, our café was broken into, resulting in significant damage and theft. The costs to repair the window, replace stolen equipment and inventory, and cover the revenue lost from shutting down for several days have left us at a loss of close to $6,000. We are turning to you, our incredible community, for support to help us recover from this devastating setback.

Our Goal: $6,000

By raising $6,000, we can:

However, our vision goes beyond just recovery. If we surpass our goal, we aim to invest in a comprehensive security system for the entire 4300 block of Troost. This neighborhood has seen its share of crime, and we are determined to make a difference by enhancing security and reducing crime for all our neighbors.

Why Your Support Matters

Equal Minded Café is more than just a café; it’s a community hub where connections are made, opportunities are created, and lives are transformed. Your contribution, no matter the size, will have a profound impact on our ability to continue serving and uplifting our community.

If you’ve ever experienced the warmth of our space, the sense of belonging, or the positive influence we’ve had on countless lives, we urge you to stand with us. Your generosity will not only help us recover but also ensure that we can continue to provide a safe and welcoming environment for everyone in our neighborhood.
