Our mission is to serve individuals and families by providing for critical needs, connecting to community resources, and teaching job and life skills in a safe and supportive environment.
 

We are honored to share that True Light Family Resource Center has once again been selected by United Way as one of the Top 100 Impact Organizations in Kansas City. This recognition reflects the ongoing commitment, resilience, and compassion that flow through every corner of our community. From our dedicated staff and volunteers to our generous donors, community partners, and the neighbors who trust us to walk alongside them—this honor belongs to all of you.
Each day, we are reminded that real change happens when people come together with purpose. Whether you’ve shared your time, your voice, or your resources, your support has helped make True Light a beacon of hope and healing in Kansas City. Thank you for believing in our mission. Together, we’re not just offering services—we’re building safety, dignity, and opportunity for all.

Here’s to another year of impact, growth, and light.
