This fall, Great Jobs KC will officially launch our Volunteer Time Off benefit. All full-time staff will receive 8 paid hours per year to volunteer with a registered nonprofit in the area. We encourage our employees to connect with the community through volunteer work to develop a deeper understanding of the needs of the people we serve. By volunteering alongside our fellow Kansas Citians, we become better equipped to serve them. If your organization is a 501c3 with volunteer opportunities available for a group or an individual, please let us know at [email protected]. #Volunteer #Benefits #CommunityBuilding

On his birthday today, we remember and celebrate our founder, Ewing Marion Kauffman. Mr. Kauffman was a legend and inspiration not only to us at Great Jobs KC, but to the entire Kansas City community. He cared deeply about providing access to education to those who might not otherwise have the opportunity so that they could reach their full potentials, and believed in a holistic impact that would improve people's lives all around. Today and every day, we honor his legacy by pursuing our mission to uplift the community by providing access to higher education and professional development opportunities to all Kansas Citians.
