Each year we celebrate the launch of Thelma’s Kitchen with a month-long campaign. This year we are celebrating six years of offering healthy, delicious food that also pays lunch forward for hungry neighbors and supports social and mental health services that help level the playing field for neighbors in need.

Thelma’s Birthday Month promos include: press releases, media coverage, and positive storytelling that highlights the work of this special Social Venture model, with unique stories and posts happening each week of the month of August.

The 2nd Annual Hike For Reconciliation is a guided urban hike in the heart of KC that follows the outline of the historic Porter Plantation that once stood where RS operates today. This 3.1-mile trek incorporates storytelling, history, and reflection into an all-ages active experience that aims to move us all closer to understanding the need for reconciliation.
