The Kansas City Downtown Minority Development Corporation concentrates its giving locally in Kansas City, making relatively large, unrestricted-style grants to organizations that support community infrastructure and direct services for families. Recent awards show a particular emphasis on strengthening local philanthropic infrastructure and child- and family-focused programs that serve minority and low-income communities. The foundation appears to favor funding a small number of high-impact local partners rather than a broad portfolio.
