The Kyle Area Senior Zone (KASZ) is proud to announce they are more than halfway to reaching their fundraising goal to complete their first step in getting a new senior activity center.
Last year, the KASZ group approached the City Council to help its efforts, and the city of Kyle has donated the land for the activity center and agreed to match $200,000 out of the city’s 2022 budget, contingent on the fact that Hays County and the organization each raise another $200,000. The combined $600,000 would be used for construction ready building plans. At that time, Jerry Hendrix, Assistant City Manager for Kyle, says once the construction plans are complete, the organization will rely on its fundraising campaign – the Capital Campaign Fund – and applications for grants to raise money for the construction. Hendrix says if all goes well, the city could potentially break ground in 2022.
