Cultivating plants is so much more than digging in the dirt. Three of our programs help participants get their hands dirty—and gain knowledge and confidence in the process. And all of these programs are possible thanks in part to our annual plant sale.

As a foster parent, you have the opportunity to help children heal from past trauma by providing a safe and nurturing home. Your guidance and support are invaluable during such a critical time in their lives. But the process of becoming a foster parent can seem daunting–after all, you are bringing a child into your home, so where do you start? How long does it take?
Volunteers are at the core of the work we do. This month, we celebrate the many volunteers who have donated their time to the youth and families we serve. One organization that has made a positive impact on the youth we serve is KeyBank of Overland Park.
