Greater Kansas City
Compassionate Capital Fund Collaborative
Two collaborating UMKC centers, the UMKC Institute for Human Development and the Bloch School’s Midwest Center for Nonprofit Leadership, have been awarded a $500,000 grant from the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services to support their work to strengthen the capacity of faith-based and community nonprofit organizations in Greater Kansas City.
“The Greater Kansas City Compassionate Capital Fund Collaborative” promotes effective social change through capacity building activities that improve the long-term viability, sustainability, and effectiveness of small faith-based and community-based organizations in the Greater Kansas City area. The long term result of this program will be stronger organizations that will be more effective in meeting the needs of individuals and families in the following risk areas: low-income, homeless, elders in need, youth at-risk, and families in transition from welfare to work.
