John Knox Village Foundation

We are overwhelmed! Thank you to everyone answered our call for face coverings for members of our Village community! The response to our request has been wonderful ... and so comforting. And we still are collecting donations. If you sew and would like to contribute face coverings or if you have donations of fabric (100% cotton, please), call 816-347-2382. Thank you!

Do you know how to sew? Volunteer your time to create face covers for John Knox Village health care associates! The John Knox Village Foundation is organizing volunteers to help create face coverings that can be used if there is a shortage of face masks because of the virus. Anyone can contribute to the campaign - yes, even friends of the Village! Donations of masks are appreciated, as are donations of tightly woven, 100% cotton fabric. For additional information or to request the kits to make the face coverings, call the Foundation office at 816-347-2382.

Live auctions can be lively and fun! Can you share the most exciting item you've seen featured in a live auction?

One of the things that sets the John Knox Village Gala apart from other events are the unique auction items we offer to our guests. Do you have a good or service you'd like to donate for our live or silent auction? Drop us a note at [email protected].

For as little as $500 you can become a sponsor of the biggest event of the summer! Check out all the opportunities you or your company can get involved at www.jkv.org/event/jkv-gala.

Your support of the John Knox Village Gala is making a huge difference in our community! Back in 2018, proceeds from the Staying Alive! Gala purchased a new ambulance and lifesaving equipment. THANK YOU! Please make plans to join us on July 18 and Let's Fiesta!

Look who'll be back at the 2020 John Knox Village Gala! We are so excited to hear the musical stylings of Michael Dale and the Hired Guns again this year! Check them out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M3ns9QvFpo

THANK YOU! To date, we have collected about 2,300 face coverings, which are being distributed to our associates and residents of independent living.
