Nourish KC
Empowering Communities Through Food
Started in the basement of the Cathedral as the “hot food program,” the Kansas City Community Kitchen is still feeding the hungry in Kansas City as Nourish KC.
At Nourish KC, they believe in the power of food to transform lives, empower individuals, and create thriving communities. For 35 years, they have been a cornerstone of Kansas City, working to eliminate hunger and improve nutrition. Their mission goes beyond food distribution—it is about building connections, fostering hope, and driving meaningful change. Through innovative programs, strategic partnerships, and the efforts of our dedicated volunteers, Nourish KC addresses hunger while tackling its root causes. Every meal prepared and every pantry item distributed reflects our commitment to a future where everyone, regardless of their circumstances, has access to nutritious food.
