Kansas City, KS — At Pharmacy of Grace, our mission has always been clear—making life-saving medications accessible to everyone, especially those who are uninsured or underinsured. We believe that no one should have to choose between their health and their finances. Today, we’re excited to share a special opportunity that will help us make an even bigger impact, and we need your support to make it happen!

Thanks to a generous $50,000 1-to-1 matching gift challenge from the William G. McGowan Charitable Fund, every donation made to Pharmacy of Grace from now until the end of the year will be doubled! That’s right—every dollar you give will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000.

Here’s how it works:McGowan Matching Grant Challenge

  • A $50 donation becomes $100.
  • A $500 gift grows into $1,000.
  • And $1,000 turns into $2,000!

This matching gift challenge gives us the chance to raise $100,000 in total—funds that will directly support the patients who rely on us for their medications. But we’re on a tight deadline. We have until December 31st to raise the full $50,000 and unlock the entire match. Every dollar counts, and we’re counting on supporters like you to help us get there.

Your donation, no matter the size, will go twice as far in ensuring that vulnerable members of our community can get the medication they need. Whether you’re able to give today or closer to the end of the year, your contribution will have double the impact, helping us continue to serve those in need.

At Pharmacy of Grace, we like to say we’re “Making Meds More Accessible.” With this matching gift challenge, we have the opportunity to take that mission even further, and we can’t do it without you.

Thank you for your support!

May 15, 2024 – Pharmacy of Grace is thrilled to announce that we have been chosen as a recipient of the prestigious United Way Impact 100 grant. As an organization that is not even two years old yet, we are honored to be joining the respected local non-profits on this list of grant recipients. 

This recognition by United Way of Greater Kansas City reaffirms our commitment to providing better access to medication and improved overall health to under-resourced people in our community and marks a significant milestone in our journey towards creating a healthier, more resilient Greater Kansas City.

The Impact 100 grant program is a cornerstone initiative of United Way, designed to identify and invest in the most vital health and human service organizations making a difference in our region.

After thorough deliberation, Pharmacy of Grace emerged as one of the standout organizations poised to effect meaningful change in the Kansas City area.

At Pharmacy of Grace, our mission is clear: to ensure that every individual has access to the medications and health resources they need to thrive.
