Ché Café Benefit

An Announcement!

Thank you to everyone who has been supporting thus far, we’ve made over $1,000 in donations in the past week alone!

Because of the great progress that is being made, I figured that now would be a good time to make an announcement about the next stages of this benefit process…

Friday, January 6th - Sunday, January 8th there is going to be a benefit festival held at the Che. Over the next few weeks, I will start announcing some of the bands we have lined up but, until then, just trust me that you are going to want to go.

Special thanks to Scott from Spirit Animal Productions for helping put on this festival!

Mark your calendars, it’s going to be serious.

About me

The Ché Café, founded in 1980, is a community space, DIY venue, vegan café, resource center for radical grassroots activists, and a whole lot more. We host all ages shows, serve tasty vegan food and host numerous political and social events.

This fundraising page will serve as a collection of music, art, photographs, videos, and words from a community that supports the perseverance of the Ché. Financial adversity is now threatening the venue's existence, and we need everyone to come together and help achieve our goal of raising $12,000--enough money to renew the Ché’s insurance policy and ensure that this crucial community space will remain in operation.

We hope that with this donation page, filled with art and thoughts from people who support this space and what it has stood for over the past three decades, we will not only help raise the money necessary to keep the Che Cafe running, but also the awareness of its legacy and how it will continue to benefit our community in the future.

Keep your eyes open for more benefit events and a compilation record on the horizon, and please see the contact and donate pages for more information on how to contribute. Thanks!
