Kansas City Dream Center Co

We are a resource center focused on finding solutions to homelessness and hunger through residential and community outreach programs. We had 12,025 volunteer hours assisting our 4 employees to impact the community for better and to help create new beginnings in 2022. Our food pantry and clothing closet provided assistance to 3,596 people. Partnering with Sysco we gave 10,992 lbs of food to those in need. Partnering with the Harvesters Community Food Network, we gave 440,602 lbs of food valued at over $845,000 to those in need via drive-thru style the first Saturday of every month. Warehouse space valued at $147,917 was donated by Northpoint Development. During January and February 2022, we opened an extreme weather project to save lives during the coldest winter nights. When temperatures were forecasted to reach 20 degrees or below, we opened our doors to prevent individuals from imminent danger by providing warm showers, hot meals, and a safe place to sleep.
