Kershaw’s Challenge launches COVID-19 initiative

From Kershaw’s Challenge

Kershaw’s Challenge, and its founders Clayton and Ellen Kershaw, have announced an initiative to support their beneficiaries most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the Kershaw’s “hometowns”; Behind Every Door in Dallas and the Dream Center in Los Angeles. Both organizations are helping members of the community during these unprecedented times.

The two-week fundraising campaign will be matched dollar for dollar by Clayton & Ellen Kershaw, and the funds will be disbursed immediately upon conclusion of the campaign. Donors who contribute more than $50 will be entered to win a random drawing and a chance to participate in one of five Zoom chats with the Kershaw’s. The first 10 donors who contribute $5,000 or more will automatically win a Zoom chat as well.

“These are difficult times for so many people in our beloved hometowns of Dallas and Los Angeles,” said the Kershaw’s, “and we want to help these wonderful organizations continue to make an impact in their community as soon as possible.”

Donations can be made at the Kershaw’s Challenge website: https://www.kershawschallenge.com/covid19

Behind Every Door – Dallas, TX – “Love your Neighbor” boxes are being given to families living in BED communities. These boxes provide the basic food essentials that families need during this crisis. Boxes are distributed directly to families in need. Each box costs about $50 and will directly bless a family.

Dream Center – Los Angeles, CA – Our incredible Dream Center friends are serving 13,000 meals a day during this crisis. We want to fuel this mission. Our donation will go straight to this effort of feeding those who need a meal in Los Angeles.
