This past year has been an extraordinary challenge for most people and small businesses alike. Kelcema is not an exception.
With a lack of events to support the company's ongoing operating costs the money will run out, as of 2/20/21 mid april, forcing closure.
Kelcema costs Approximately $7,000 per month to sit on standby, costs go towards warehouse rental, truck loan, and one of our sound systems that is maturing in 8/2021, as well as other day to day costs such as internet, electricity, phones, water.
Our Goal of $50,000 will help bridge the gap in conjunction with another PPP loan until this summer when we hope to get back going again. We are trying our best to pivot into virtual events in the meantime, in hopes of securing enough business to survive. Without funding from this go-fund-me, it is unlikely that will happen.
We humbly ask you to spare anything you can to help keep us afloat. No contribution is too small. Myself and Ray share a passion for supporting the community and many of our productions would be challenged to reach the quality they once had should we not have this platform moving forward.
It is safe to say that the only thing that has kept many of us going through these dark times is knowing there is a light at the end of this tunnel where we may all get together again. Please consider giving to this cause and keep the dream and life's work of our friends going.
