United Is the Way KPS Gives so everyone can thrive
Your donation, added to the next person's, combined with volunteers, distributed to nonprofits who are positioned for the greatest impact is the way that everyone in our community can thrive. When we lift up the most vulnerable in our community, we all benefit. United is the Way everyone thrives.
