Kauffman Foundation gives $1.5M to KC Public Library

The Kansas City Public Library will be able to continue with its many programming series with a $1.5 million grant from the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.

The grant will be distributed over three years.

“The very generous ongoing operating support of the Kauffman Foundation has made possible the library’s programming, which we believe to be the best in the United States,” library Director Crosby Kemper III said in announcing the grant.
