Quotes by Laura McKnight

“The fact that the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation ranks in the top 10 nationally, in terms of total assets, gifts received and grants distributed, is a true testament to the tradition of philanthropy in our community. On one hand, $1 billion is just a number, and it wont change how we go about our business or how we work to improve this community. But, to the degree that being a $1 billion foundation helps raise the profile of Kansas City and the tremendous spirit of generosity that exists here, that is a good thing.”

“We feel that, by getting more individuals and organizations involved in philanthropy, we can have an even greater impact and bring even more positive change to Kansas City. We start by asking our donors, Whats important to you? and then work to connect them to nonprofit organizations and charitable causes they care about.”
