G.I.F.T. of Color Annual Gala

The G.I.F.T. of Color Gala truly is the key to understanding and supporting the struggle for equality in Kansas City. The annual fundraising event raises the necessary funds to promote Black excellence culture and empower Black businesses, directly addressing the racial wealth gap and reducing poverty-related crime in our city. 

For too long, systemic racism and discrimination have held back Black-owned businesses in economically marginalized communities. By supporting the G.I.F.T. Of Color Gala, you are helping to change this narrative. You get a glimpse into the vibrant Black culture and directly contribute to the fight against inequality, promoting business excellence and creating jobs. It is no small feat to close the racial wealth gap and improve the quality of life in historically redlined neighborhoods. But every effort brings us closer to realizing this dream. Bottom Line: If standing against systemic racism and promoting economic growth in marginalized communities is something you're passionate about, we would love for you to join us!
