On Saturday May 16th, KittyKind participated in two West Village Street Fairs. The Christopher Street Block Association Annual Fair and the Bedford, Barrow Commerce Street “Ye Olde Village” street fair. By late afternoon the sun was shining. There were a lot of people out on the streets and KK raised money from all the generous donations from people walking by.
We sold donated items such as jewelry (thank you Bev and Miriam), a hand-made stuffed animal and apron from Colorado Comfort (thank you Janette’s mom), high quality design products for the home (thank you Nancy), make-up (thank you Kiri), an artist’s print (thank you Coralie) and a handful of other items.
Daisy Dog Studio donated water bowls for us to sell to raise money- THANK YOU.
Many volunteers came out to help. Nancy, Safia, Lori, Coralie, Jessica, Billie, Claire, Cathy, Miriam, Janette and Ann.
One added benefit/delight was all the people who came over (there were probably nearly a dozen) who said, “Oh, I adopted my cat(s) from Kitty Kind” — some as long as 10 years ago — and every one reported how happy they were.

I was so happy to read about Kitty Kind at the West Village Street Fair. I hope to attend the next one and I am collecting things to sell.
