Greetings everyone,
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kevin Ho, most of the Linkery family calls me K-Ho, I’m one of the O.G. Linkery folks, and I also manage our Charity of the Month program. I don’t know why we never thought of this before, but I’m excited to start sharing with you about the great people and organizations that we support in our community.
As most of you already know, we apply an 18% service charge to all of our bills, and any additional money left over is donated to the Charity of the Month. For the most part, we strive to support organizations that provide a diversity of services within our local community and especially those in which our patrons are involved our support themselves.
For the month of April, we are proud to be supporting the Big Sister League of San Diego, which is a private, non-profit organization serving women and girls of San Diego, California since 1942. They support two separate programs: the Big and Little Sister Mentor Program and a Housing Program. Through their Big and Little Sister Mentor Program, adult women provide friendship and guidance to help young at-risk girls recognize their talents and use them to reach their full potential. The Housing Program, with two locations near downtown San Diego, provides transitional housing for mentally ill, homeless and/or abused women. Additionally, they are not associated with Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Diego County, and they receive NO funding from them to support their services.
