“Today we delivered over 393 pounds of food to the Murphysboro Food Pantry. Our Block office matched those donations given by the community. To say they were appreciative of the donations would be an understatement.”

We are better together. That’s why we’re working with national organizations and those in our hometown of Kansas City to make an even greater impact.
We’re improving the quality of life for neighbors with Habitat for Humanity. We increase access to quality housing and better neighborhood spaces through local grants and associate volunteerism, via Habitat’s network of affiliates nationwide.
We’re working with Nextdoor, the neighborhood hub, asking Americans to nominate inspiring improvement projects for their community. In our first year, we received more than 2,000 submissions from neighbors in all 50 states. The projects will enhance shared spaces and form longer-lasting connections in neighborhoods big and small.
Funded by an H&R Block Foundation grant, the Urban Neighborhood Initiative hosts community-building events that promote better connections between residents, better connect citizens to helpful resources, and is making home repairs possible throughout an underserved 10-neighborhood area in the heart of Kansas City.
The Neighborhoods Rising Fund (NRF) provides critical funding support to help historically underinvested neighborhoods throughout the Kansas City region. They leverage their residents’ talents and energy to increase connections, support innovation, and measurable community development.
With the Kauffman Foundation, we are committed to aiding the entrepreneurial ecosystem in every state and corner of the country. We’ll work together to better connect and support the small business owners that power our local economies.
Block Advisors are helping historically underrepresented business owners improve their financial management and gain access to capital through a program being piloted with the Urban League of Greater Kansas City.
Our $2 million investment in KCRise Fund II helps fund early-stage technology companies in Kansas City. A five-year program, the Fund’s investors include local corporations, family firms and prominent business leaders, all committed to building the future.
Through partnerships, volunteerism and direct support, we're making every small business, community, neighborhood and block better.
