A MOVEMENT OF EVERY DAY GENEROSITY

We are extremely excited to be bringing this awesome program back to the Kansas City area. We look forward to working with our returning and new scholars in 2023, as we celebrate the Kansas City Freedom Schools Initiative’s return of providing cultural, academic and enrichment programs to Kansas City area children.

One key element that has kept the Kansas City Freedom Schools sustained and thriving over the years is the monetary support we’ve received from community members such as yourself.

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation ($10, $25, $50, $100 or more) to the Mt Pleasant Freedom School Initiative to support our 2023 year of providing a literacy program in Greater Kansas City.
