A Kansas Experiment: Application of the SDGs by Small and/or Rural Community Foundations

Overview of the Project

This two-year experiment proposed by the Kansas Association of Community Foundations sought to build a case study in support of the notion that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) put forth by the United Nations are relevant to community foundations – even to small and/or rural community foundations. The final report of A Kansas Experiment: Application of the Sustainable Development Goals by Small and/or Rural Community Foundations is now available.

This project officially launched in September 2021 and involved five Kansas community foundation teams: 

Bird City Century II Community Foundation 

Legacy, A Regional Community Foundation 

Peabody Community Foundation 

Rice County Community Foundation 

Western Kansas Community Foundation

This work was made possible by a generous grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation.
