Bethel Neighborhood Center

Bethel Neighborhood Center We are a nonprofit started in 1911. Our mission is to offer hope to all to achieve self-sufficiency. We run after school and summer programs for grades 1-12.

Bethel Neighborhood Center (BNC) has been serving people of all ages -- from infants to senior adults in the Kansas City, Kansas community for 112 years, since 1911. It has a history of serving newly immigrated or migrated people groups to the Kansas City community who consist primarily of economically challenged and underserved families and individuals. We serve the community through meals, food

pantry, health, educational, sewing training, and recreational programs to promote physical and social wellness. Since early 1920s, BNC has been recognized as a United Way agency. Since 1971, BNC has been recognized as a nutrition site by Area Agency on Aging of Wyandotte County. In 2020, we served more than 23,000 individuals, and in 2021, more 13,000 through our food pantry. Homework help, social skills, conflict resolution, community service, and college readiness are some of the things we do with our children and youth.

Last month when we took our seniors on a field trip to Lake Jacomo, they were overjoyed and danced in their pontoon boats.

Bethel invited Futures First to provide an interactive workshop for a small group of our RSS parents and their young children. The workshop, titled “Little Minds, Big Feelings: Understanding Social-Emotional Development in Young Children,” focused on helping parents better understand their children’s social and emotional development and provided practical ways to support their growth and well-being. There were four languages being utilized within the group. Kuddos to the presenter and staff members who made it work seamlessly.

A Heartfelt Thank You! ✂️🧵❤️*

A huge thank you to Fonda and Carrie for taking the time to drop off sewing kits and fabrics for our sewing class!

We are so grateful to First Baptist Church of Hiawatha, Kansas for your love, generosity, and continued support of our ministry. Your kindness is stitching hope, dignity, and joy into so many lives.

Because of partners like you, our students can learn new skills and create new things with love.

May God bless you richly for your faithfulness!

At Bethel Neighborhood Center, our seniors are proof that age is just a number!

They are committed to active living and healthy eating — not just to live longer, but to live better, with more energy, joy, and independence.

From daily walks and gentle exercise to nutritious meals and great company, they inspire us all to make wellness a lifestyle.

Let's celebrate their dedication! ❤️
