Rental aid flows to community

By Mike Genet mike.genet@examiner.net The Examiner Since applications opened the first week of April, the Community Services League has distributed more than $1.4 million to households as part of a rental assistance program with federal grant dollars.  At last check, president/CEO Doug Cowan said, 365 applications have been closed and paid to landlords or utility companies – an average of more than $3,800 paid out. In addition, another 132 applications have received initial approval and will likely be paid out soon.  Those closed applications are part of 1,247 applications received through the portal for Eastern Jackson County. CSL is handling that area in partnership with the United Way of Greater Kansas City, which is overseeing the program over Kansas City and surrounding Jackson County. CSL is scheduled to distribute more than $11.5 million, and the city of Kansas City was scheduled to distribute $14.8 million. 

Through Truman Heartland Community Foundation, local students listen, learn, work, lead

The Examiner Philanthropy is not innate. We are not born with it, and children do not wake up one day and choose to be charitable any more than they wake up and decide to eat their green, leafy vegetables without complaint. Philanthropy is learned by modeling the charitable behavior of the caring adults in their lives, learning why it’s important to give back.   The concept of youth philanthropy has really taken hold in the nonprofit sector since the early discussions of the concept in the late ‘80s. As children move into their teen years, they begin to develop a sense of society, social justice and self-purpose. They recognize they have a role to play in their community and understand they can have meaningful participation and impact. And when young people get involved with community service and giving at an early age, they tend to continue those charitable behaviors into adulthood. (Source: Kathryn A.
