Monarch Manor Tree Planting Blitz – Take 2!
Saturday, October 20th, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM, or until we’ve planted the last tree
2101 Garfield, Kansas City, Missouri
Help Keep Kansas City Beautiful plant 60 trees in Monarch Manor on the former site of the Kansas City Municipal Stadium. The storms cut our tree planting blitz short last weekend, so we need help wrapping it up! We are expecting cool sunny weather! Community volunteers will work alongside residents in the urban core of Kansas City, Missouri. The trees will serve the community in a number of ways: provide shade, clean the air, reduce stress, increase property values and deter crime. Several volunteer opportunities are available: help with set-up and volunteer check-in, or plant trees. This event was made possible with generous support from the Lowe’s Charitable and Educational Foundation.

Help Keep Kansas City Beautiful plant 98 street trees in Monarch Manor on the former site of the Kansas City Municipal Stadium, and witness former Monarch Players ceremoniously plant the first tree! Community volunteers will work alongside residents in the urban core of Kansas City, Missouri. The ...

Here's to all of the people who volunteered, reached out, and helped get more people from the east side signed up for Google Fiber. How can UMKC Service-Learning help with next steps?

Leaders pushed to sign up poorer, predominantly black, neighborhoods of Kansas City, Mo., to qualify for Google’s new Internet service, fearing that otherwise they will lag further behind.

UMKC Sociology capstone students will be focusing their service-learning on grant writing this fall. While nonprofits have seasoned professionals writing the grants, perhaps there is work that the graduating seniors can do to help? Would your organization be interested in working with a student?
