We are committed to expanding the reach of this event beyond Kansas City, drawing in visitors from neighboring counties and states, thereby boosting tourism and injecting new revenue into the local economy through retail, restaurants, hotels, and entertainment businesses.
Event Purpose & Impact
The Kansas City Black Expo is a unique opportunity to bring together Kansas City’s Black business community, corporations, consumers, and visitors in a celebration of the historic strengths, values, and contributions of Black families.
- Strengthening Community & Business Connections: We intentionally design our events to improve the overall well-being of Kansas City residents while fostering economic growth, cultural appreciation, and meaningful business partnerships.
- Access to Essential Services: Through strategic partnerships with healthcare providers, we bridge the gap for individuals and families who may lack access to vital services such as immunizations, health screenings, and wellness education.
- Promoting Holistic Well-being: From financial literacy to cultural arts and community networking, our event creates a space for growth, empowerment, and celebration of Black excellence.
Health & Wellness Initiatives
In partnership with the local healthcare organizations, we are committed to ensuring that families have access to critical health information and services.
- Free health screenings, vaccines, and wellness checks available to all attendees, regardless of insurance status.
- Educational workshops focused on nutrition, mental health, and fitness for all ages.

Our foundation has dedicated over 13 years to enhancing the well-being of the Kansas City community, and we continue that legacy with a strong commitment to health, business, and family empowerment.
