Have you ever felt a little tug on your heart to help out, but just didn’t know where to start? In this heartfelt episode of KC Cares, Ruth chats with Brent L***r, the wonderfully kind founder of Uncover KC. Brent shares how a simple moment handing out candy to children changed his life 13 years ago and sparked a beautiful mission to make volunteering accessible for everyone. We talk about helping students see nonprofit work as a fulfilling career, how businesses are stepping up to serve, and why good old-fashioned human connection is still the secret to healing our communities.

Giving That Makes a Difference! Celebrating National Donor-Advised Fund Day! Kansas City's nonprofits do incredible things every day, and behind much of that work are generous people who believe in giving back!

On National Donor-Advised Fund Day, KC Cares celebrates an important tool in philanthropy: Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs). These charitable giving accounts allow donors to support causes close to their hearts while providing nonprofits with vital funding to strengthen programs, expand services, and make a lasting impact in our community.

Curious about how DAFs work and why they matter? We've got you covered! On a special KC Cares "Ask the Expert" episode, we welcomed Susie Johnson of the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation to help us understand these funds and their role in supporting the nonprofit community.
