Empire Espresso’s own Kelly Mathis could use some help. A recent post on the Columbia City Facebook page clued the neighborhood in that Columbia City’s best barista is undergoing brain surgery for a benign tumor. A crowdfunding site has been established to help her offset the medical costs.
Many a Columbia City Source post has been fueled by a drink made by Kelly. Click here to help out. 
Kelly Mathis has a brain tumor. It is benign.
It will be removed. Removing a tumor is not cheap. This fundraiser will help pay for any medical costs plus help her with living expenses while she is on the mend. Kelly is a truly genuine, caring person. She loves her neighborhood, Columbia City. She loves her work as a barista at Empire Espresso. She’s awesome. Please give anything you can.
