Our Legacy Is Determined By How We Invest In The Next Generation
More Than Just a Coffee House
Happy Crews campaign to destigmatize mental health issues by creating community, sharing the message, “YOU MATTER, YOU BELONG”. To push the campaign forward we plan to launch Kākou Coffee House, a place where teens will find community, acceptance, hope, and strength. Join us in investing in the next generation.
Kākou is the Hawaiian value of inclusiveness. It means “all of us” and “we are in this together.” Kākou is the language of unification, and all are taught to learn, speak, and practice “the language of we.”
Depression, anxiety, stress, sadness and suicidal thoughts are realities many teenagers face, every single day. Kākou coffee will be a place where teens can gather for community, conversation, coffee, juice, music, and art, be welcomed as they are, and encouraged in who they want to become. All are welcome, everyone matters, everyone belongs. Kākou will also be a place where parents find resources including education on how to talk to teens about mental health issues, improve communication, and find parenting support. Kākou will also provide access to professional counselors.
We are seeking sponsors to open Kākou Coffee in south Denver. Our proposed location is within 5 miles of the 1-25 and C-470 Intersection, central to 11,000 teenagers. Please contact Amy Mays: Amy@Kakoucoffehouse.com for more information.
