About Kenzi's Causes
Putting a smile on the faces of low-income children in Colorado
Because it Matters.
Our Story
Sometimes the most unfortunate circumstances can transform into unexpected beauty. Kenzi’s Causes is a testament to that.
Dolls for Daughters® was founded by Jessica Bachus after her daughter, Kenzi was stillborn at 24 weeks. Overcome with grief, Jessica felt compelled to channel her emotions into something that would honor Kenzi’s memory. With this deep and noble calling, Dolls for Daughters® was born. Jessica and her family began providing dolls to young girls during the holiday season who would otherwise go without.
It was in her own grief that she stabilized the hearts of others. Over a decade later, Jessica’s heartbreak led to a breakthrough that would change the trajectory of struggling families in the Colorado area forever.
Our Mission
To support underprivileged children and their families in Colorado by providing toys, food, and more during the holidays; school supplies and clothing during the school year; and assisting families through community outreach, financial planning and professional support.
