Hi. This is Cafecito y Cuentos KC's first Latine focused literary space. Founded by Marielena from ConCulturaKC, America from The Littlest Library, and Kelly from Hellianthus Books. Three women on a mission to curate a space for Latine authors and foster their conversations and stories.

This brand will host a podcast highlighting the guest authors and local latine KC Businesses along with in person book signings and discussions.

But we need your help. Our first guest Jorge Xolalpa, author of 'Ni De Aqui, Ni De Alla' comes in March and we are searching for funding to help start this series, and make sure authors are paid for their work.

Any contributions will be used toward seating for our in person event, podcast equipment, author travel expenses and fees, along with media coverage.

Our community needs this, now more than ever. We appreciate any support to get this going and make it as impactful as it deserves.

Thank you,

Mari, America, and Kelly
