Port KC for KC
Through our time, expertise, and financial support, we are committed to giving back to our community as both an organization and as individual staff members.
From large to small, we support almost 40 non-profit organizations in our city including the NeXt Stage KC minority and women entrepreneur training program and the COVID-19 Small Business Relief Fund.
We offer paid time off for community service and Election Days. All of our staff volunteers in the community, and many additionally serve on community boards or as volunteer community advisors.
