In 2007, Jessica Bachus started Dolls for Daughters®, after her daughter Kenzi was stillborn. She created an annual holiday Toy Drive for Colorado children who would not otherwise have toys during the holidays. Today, Kenzi’s Causes collects more than 100,000 toys, stocking stuffers, books, toothbrush/toothpaste kits, backpacks, lunch boxes and other items to change the lives of children in Colorado through our programs. At this annual event, families are also provided with community resources to help improve their lives and the lives of their children.

For most kids and teens, back to school is an exciting time. The days leading up to school are full of back-to-school shopping, picking out new backpacks, reading the last few chapters of summer reading books, and enjoying time just being a kid. But for other families – it may not be nearly as exciting of…
At Kenzi’s Causes, we’re on a mission to put a smile on the faces of low-income children in Colorado, because we believe it matters. So much of the incredible work we’re able to do is made possible by our phenomenal board members, so we thought it would be important to share some of their stories…
