Kansas Community Corp

About Us

The Kansas Community Corporation was established in 1993 to promote the welfare of the citizens of Kansas.  The corporation also works, aids, and assists other community organizations for the benefit of their programs which help improve our community.  In 1999, the Kansas Community Corporation applied and became an Illinois Charitable Organization.  After many years of service to our Community, the Kansas Lions Club retired its charter in 2021 and became part of the Kansas Community Corporation.    Over the years, the Kansas Community Corporation has provided financial assistance to many programs, organized numerous community events and assisted with community clean-up projects.  Some of the programs the Kansas Community Corporation has assisted in the past and the present are the following:

• Financial assistance to youth and school groups (i.e. Little League, Girl Scouts, CAMA/In-touch, RIF (Reading is Fundamental), the Dolly Parton Library, the Kansas Community Memorial Library, Post Prom)
• Improved the village park by adding a covered stage under the park pavilion, restoring and painting the older playground equipment, providing new playground equipment with a rubber ADA compliant surface, maintaining and adding more sand to the playground area, and most recently added a gazebo.
