Green Foundation Announcement
The Allen P. and Josephine B. Green Foundation is pleased to announce a new relationship it has established with the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation (GKCCF). This relationship will go into effect on July 1, 2011. GKCCF will assist the Green Foundation by providing a host of services, including grant making support.
As a result, the Green Foundation will have a new process for its grant making, which will be administered by GKCCF.

Foundation Overview
The Allen P. and Josephine B. Green Foundation is a private foundation with about $11 million in assets. The mission of the Foundation can be summed up as “Improving the quality of life in Missouri”. The Foundation accepts grant applications from and makes grants to publicly supported, non-profit [501(c)(3)] organizations whose objectives and programs generally fit within the mission of the Foundation.

Over its lifetime, the Foundation has paid out over $15,000,000 in grants.
There are eleven members of the Board of Directors, who meet twice a year to award grants and conduct other business essential to the Foundation. The office is located in Mexico, Missouri, where the Foundation was founded over sixty years ago. The Foundation’s tax returns can be viewed and downloaded at guidestar.org.
