Junior League of Kansas City, Missouri

Endowment Fund

The Community Endowment Fund was created by the Junior League for the purpose of providing grants to Kansas City community-based not-for-profit agencies. Each year, our volunteers provide grants of $250.00 to $5,000.

We encourage you to apply.

The Community Endowment Fund was established by the Membership in 1988 through a bequest of $125,000 made by Sustainer Member, Helen Ridenour Riley.

The Community Endowment Fund has provided over $250,000 in immediate assistance to the greater Kansas City Community since 2000. You are encouraged, not required to include a letter of sponsorship by a Junior League member who is associated with your agency as a board member of volunteer.
