Humanitarian Service in Kansas City
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints sponsors humanitarian relief and development projects around the world that benefit those of all faiths. These projects include emergency relief assistance in times of disaster and programs that strengthen the self-reliance of individuals, families and communities.
Hundreds of full-time volunteers with skills and experience in education, agriculture, social work, business and medicine serve throughout the world as part of these humanitarian projects. These relief efforts include responses to the recent tsunamis, the earthquake in Haiti, the hurricanes in Louisiana and Texas and the famines in Ethiopia.

While projects are carried out all over the world, local Church units in the Kansas City area are also engaged in humanitarian efforts for the benefit of our communities. These efforts have included participation in the Liberty Preparedness Fair, the Festival of Sharing (pictured above) and many others.
These types of projects are carried out all over the Kansas City area each year. While communities benefit with each project, we all benefit from the efforts we make to join together with our neighbors in humanitarian service.
