Severe Weather Awareness Week is March 3 – 7.
Central Kansas Community Foundation (CKCF) and their affiliates have community-based Community Response Funds that include weather related response efforts.
The Community Response Funds are listed to help you direct your charitable gift to a community of your choosing. The purpose of these funds is for support of 501 (c) (3) or other qualified tax-exempt organizations, i.e. city and county government, educational institutions and faith institutions.
Weather related needs may include funds directed toward severe weather preparedness education for students and families. Funding basic needs such as food, rent and utilities. Grants may also be available for repair or to support the weatherization process.
If your organization is assisting in the response effort, please contact the local affiliate community foundation in your area for application information. Learn more on the CKCF website.
