Providing Support to Benefit the Village, Our Residents, and the Community

With the aim of bringing joy, comfort and support into the lives of older adults who are residents of John Knox Village and beyond, the John Knox Village Foundation is a strong supporter of the Village and its mission. The Foundation, which was established in 1983, works in a spirit of collaboration with residents and friends of the Village so they can assist in funding facilities and programs that otherwise would not be possible using existing funding sources.

Gifts to the John Knox Village Foundation have provided support for programs and projects that benefit the Village, our residents and the Greater Lee’s Summit and Kansas City communities. Gifts to the Foundation provide support for various ongoing programs, including: Financial Assistance for residents who have outlived their financial resources; the Chaplain’s Fund, for spiritual care; Village Hospice; Campus Redevelopment and Beautification; and Resident Activities.
