As we reported recently, it was revealed that RHOA star Kenya Moore was finally keeping her word and donating $20,000 to the Detroit Public Schools Foundation this week, but now it’s been confirmed that the reality star has cancelled.

Detroit Free Press writes:

Kenya Moore, a cast member of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” won’t be able to attend an assembly planned in her honor Friday at Cass Technical High School because of a scheduling conflict involving her family. She still plans to donate $20,000 to the Detroit Public Schools Foundation, said Shannon Barr, vice president of a public relations firm that works with Moore.

This is the second time Moore’s appearance — and the donation — has been rescheduled. She was originally going to present a check on Tuesday, but then the event was pushed to Friday. No new date has been set.

“I’m disappointed for a variety of reasons,” said Glenda Price, president of the Detroit Public Schools Foundation. “The students at Cass Tech were preparing to perform. There has been so much anticipation about her visiting the school.”

 

Price claims Kenya has cancelled because her father won’t be able to attend this week and she plans to reschedule for a later date.

  1. They are never going to get that donation. I don’t know why Kenya won’t just be honest and admit she’s having money problems. It’s no secret that her production company is struggling and she was broke when she signed on for RHOA. She needs to stop flexing.

  2. Oh Kenya, when you’ve got an ugly countenance, and a mean, horrible spirit your karma is that much more delicious. Let’s see how Team Delusion spins this one!

  3. Ok I didn’t know she cancelled the event twice this week. It really seems like she doesn’t have the money. She’s letting her pride make a fool out of her.

  4. They will get the money. And when they do, I can’t wait to see all the bitterness that will be typed in these comments.

  5. This is a bad look. I probably wouldn’t have given it a second thought had the president not mentioned the fact these kids had been preparing for this….and if it’s her second time cancelling? Yeah. All bad.

  6. The donation is more important than the presentation so why not just hand over the donation now (to show good faith) and deal with the presentation later. I’m confident Kenya will hand over the money, but this whole charade leads me to believe this is all for show. I feel bad for the students who were excited to perform for her. It’s really sad when people mack a mockery of charity.

  7. It’s going to be a lot of hurt feelings when she gives them that check. You can’t ever count Kenya out. When will y’all learn that?
