KickStart Self-Defense is deeply thankful to our financial partners! 

We know that Larimer County abounds in non-profits striving to create a better world in Northern Colorado.  We know that the money most people have slated for giving is limited.  We know it's important to trust that your investment will be wisely managed.  For all these reasons, each dollar you give to KickStart Self-Defense is meaningful to us.  We appreciate your trust, your willing heart to give, and your commitment to our mission.  Please know that we will be good stewards with donations in any amount, and that your contribution will foster a safer community.  Thank you so much for your support!

KickStart awarded $1000 grant from Rotary Club of Fort Collins

On September 27th, KickStart Self-Defense gratefully received its first grant from the Rotary Club of Fort Collins.  KickStart will use these funds to provide five free self-defense trainings to high school teams or clubs.  With so many worthy NPO's in our community, KickStart was honored by their selection.  Executive Director Kirstin Kaines was inspired by the Rotary Club's volunteer and fundraising efforts across a wide range of causes.  She appreciated the warm welcome and supportive gathering of Rotarians, and enjoyed experiencing what being a Rotarian is all about.  Many thanks to the Rotary Club for their generous support!
