KVC creates meaningful, positive change in the lives of nearly 85,000 children, teens and families each year.
Every number represents a person: a child feeling safe for the first time in a long time, a parent getting the support they need, a teen discovering they’re not alone. Our work is built on connection, compassion, and our vision of a world in which every person is safe and connected to a strong family and healthy community.

Keeping Hope in Motion for Nearly 200 Years
KVC stands on the shoulders of pioneering children’s charities like the St. Louis Orphan’s Asylum (established in 1832) and Kansas City’s Niles Home for Children (established in 1894), historic organizations that integrated over time to form the foundation for today’s KVC. We’re honored that the boards, leaders, and supporters of these organizations chose to become part of KVC because of our shared mission, vision and values.
For nearly two centuries, caring people like you have moved hope forward – one child, one family, one life-changing moment at a time. Your support and compassion turn challenges into possibilities.
If you’re inspired by the impact you see here, we invite you to join us in keeping hope in motion.
