Please consider donating to help the Kitchener Waterloo Symphony musicians

The musicians of the Kitchener Waterloo Symphony, for which Kendra is a member, were blindsided by an announcement September 16, 2023 that the 2023/2024 concert season was cancelled.

There are multiple links below from the news describing the situation, but the most important one is http://savethekws.ca/ which takes you to the Go Fund me page at https://gofund.me/62800ea9

I know that times are tight, but if you could spare a donation to support the musicians they will greatly appreciate it.

Kendra is interviewed and/or quoted along with other KWS musicians in the articles and videos at the links below.
