The Best Part of the Job

Ask Deja what she loves most about working at Kind Kiosk, and she doesn’t hesitate: “It’s hearing from nonprofit teams after a successful fundraising event. When they tell us how much they raised and how easy the process was, that win feels like our win. There’s no better feeling than knowing I played a part in helping them succeed.”

Deja is helping shape the way we support our customers—not just with great tools, but with genuine care. We’re lucky to have her, and even luckier to get to watch the impact she helps make every day. Get in touch with Deja!
