Kingfield Neighborhood Association

Dear Kingfield, how do we love you? Let us count the ways!—

It’s Give to Max Day Thursday November 14, so we Ask that You Consider Donating to KFNA, Your Most Local Nonprofit!

There are so many things to love about Kingfield…a great park, a hopping weekly market, delicious homegrown food cooked up by local restaurant owners, plus (and here is where KFNA comes in!) a jumble of engaging and creative events, meetings, and activities designed to keep you informed and get you engaged with your community.

 

And this “community” isn’t something that just happens, it is something that Kingfield Neighborhood Association (KFNA), your local nonprofit, works really hard to create. Why? Because we believe that now, more than ever, taking time to grow connections and foster community can make a foundational change to not only our neighborhood but also in our city and country.  Also, by building a welcoming, inclusive, open and caring community we will have a positive impact on our current and future neighbors.

Learn more about what KFNA does and consider making a donation to your local nonprofit organization here.  Thank you!

Building Bridges/Breaking Bread Event Moved Indoors Tonight Due to Weather

By

Due to a forecast including likely rain and thunderstorms throughout virtually all of today we will be going with our RAIN PLAN! Join us at Sabathani Community Center, 2nd floor, 310 E 38th Street, located 1 block east of the bridge on 38th St.

Don’t fret, other than a change of locale the event will be just as lively and engaging as it was last year! And all the food vendors are still on board so get excited for a cross cultural feast from local restaurants, eateries, and grocers that is delicious and abundant as well as appropriate from vegan to carnivore and considerate of various allergies and dietary concerns.

For more information, including specific food vendors and menu items,  visit the Facebook event.
