California Endowment Has Paid Kidworks (Councilman Benavides nonprofit) Over $250,000

This explains a lot. Someone recently shared with us the Kidworks golf event publicity for Pelican Hill, and if you go to their website it shows all their big donors.

Apparently, the California Endowment which funds many of the community group activists in Santa Ana has also given Kidworks over $250,000 in recent years. No wonder Councilman Benavides votes with the activists all the time! He is the nonprofit’s executive director and his salary is paid from their “charity” donors…including the California Endowment.
