EMERGING REGION!
Greater Kansas City AFN is an emerging region that has begun to collaborate with grantmakers committed to promoting equitable wealth building and economic mobility. The region engages with private, public, corporate, and community foundations, along with public-sector funders and financial institutions, dedicated to securing economic stability for the region and its surroundings.
Greater Kansas City AFN aims to facilitate connections among funders, nonprofits, and the public and private sectors. Through ongoing collaboration, the region will share insights on promising programs and effective strategies, improve grantmaking practices, and collectively increase asset-building investments.
