Child Abuse Prevention Month

Taproom Takeover presented by the Kempe Ambassadors
The Taproom Takeover is an opportunity to network, enjoy free beer and food, and learn more about the Kempe Foundation all in a fun atmosphere. This “friendraising” event took place at the new Ratio Beerworks location in the Overland neighborhood of Denver to gain new friends for Kempe. Over 70 guests came together receiving a tour of the brewhouse and meet Kempe Ambassadors. This popular event will be back again.

Annual Expert Panel Breakfast
At least once annually, The Kempe Foundation hosts an in-person educational breakfast welcoming anyone in to participate. The conversations vary, yet primarily focus on pertinent topics affecting the lives of youth and families in our communities.

The next Uniting Communities Breakfast takes place on September 14. Registration opens soon.
