"KENBEA" LUNCH for the HOMELESS WAS CREATED BY THE FOUNDER MS. TIVON GRAHAM, BECAUSE SHE HAS AN HEART FOR THE LESS FORTUNATE. KNOWING THAT, NOT EVERYONE WHO IS HOMELESS, CHOSE TO BE HOMELESS; AND, MOST IMPORTANT, .... SHE TOO WAS ONCE HOMELESS. MS. GRAHAM CREATED "KENBEA" LUNCH FOR THE HOMELESS BECAUSE OF TWO(2) WOMEN THAT WERE VERY INSTRUMENTAL IN HER LIFE AND ALSO HAD A PASSION FOR OTHERS. TWO WOMEN THAT EXAMPLIFIED WHAT UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS/WAS.

KEN STANDS FOR KENYA. KENYA WAS A YOUNG LADY THAT MS. GRAHAM MET IN BALTIMORE MANY YEARS AGO. KENYA WAS THE DEFINITION OF "UNCONDITIONAL LOVE". KENYA DIED ON MS. GRAHAM'S BIRTHDAY (APRIL 25) MANY YEARS AGO, WHILE WAITING FOR MS. GRAHAM TO PICK HER UP FOR A BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.

BEA STANDS FOR BEA GADDY. BEA GADDY WAS A WOMAN THAT MS. GRAHAM WATCHED, LEARNED FROM, ADORED, AND WORKED FOR AT BEA GADDY'S HOME IN EAST BALTIMORE. MS. GRAHAM WORKED FOR BEA GADDY FOR TWO(2) SUMMERS WHILE SHE WAS IN THE WORK STUDY PROGRAM IN BALTIMORE, MD.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bea_Gaddy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bea_Gaddy "Beatrice "Bea" Gaddy (1933–2001) was a Baltimore city council member and a leading advocate for the poor and homeless. Known locally as the "Mother Teresa of Baltimore," she was inducted into the Maryland Women's Hall of Fame in 2006."
