Kansas City Corporate Citizenship / Partners in Philanthropy Awards

Overview

The Kansas City Corporate Citizenship / Partners in Philanthropy Awards, run by the Kansas City Business Journal, honor companies and organizations in the Kansas City metro that demonstrate outstanding commitment to philanthropy, community engagement, and corporate social responsibility. Honorees are selected through an editorially run nomination and review process and are profiled in a special publication and recognized at an event. Companies pursue this recognition to highlight their impact, strengthen their employer brand, and gain visibility among regional business and civic leaders. It is an editorial regional business-journal award rather than a pay-to-play program.
