Spirit of Service
About Spirit of Service
Animals improve lives every day — through companionship, service and support. Nonprofits in Kansas City and around the world work tirelessly to protect animal health and welfare, often with limited resources.
Since 2016, the Kansas City Animal Health Corridor has recognized outstanding organizations and helped raise nearly $300,000 to support their missions.
