Here at Flatland, we want to offer a gentle reminder that the holidays are a season of giving, not just receiving. So our gift to you is a daily list of sometimes-obscure local charitable organizations that could use your help. From Dec. 27 to Dec. 31, we are providing brief descriptions of deserving charities and information about how you can contribute.
Many people go without access to essential health care. KC Care Health Center (KCCHC) exists to change that reality. KCCHC’s mission is to ensure that underserved communities have full access to health care, resources and education. With multiple locations throughout Kansas City, KCCHC can easily reach those who need it most. This nonprofit offers services such as women’s health, dental care and much more.
