Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
The Women’s Foundation of Greater Kansas City is the result of the vision and hard work of two organizations: the Metropolitan Women’s Round table, a consortium of more than 20 local women’s organizations; and the Central Exchange, a professional women’s organization. Representatives of these two organizations began discussions in May 1989. The dream was a new foundation for women of all ages, created, supported and managed by women in Kansas City.
