Stars & Stripes, United Way Forever

Our annual Kickoff Event is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and we are looking forward to packing the Knights of Columbus again this year. 

Help the United Way of Central Kansas support their 19 Community Partners by coming to our annual Campaign Kickoff Event!  The fun-filled evening starts at 6:00 with a social hour, followed by an amazing dinner made by the Knights of Columbus at 7:00, and comedian John Bush will go on stage at 8:00 to wrap up the night.  

Comedian John Bush will be talking about his childhood relocation from Hawaii to Minnesota and his UFO sighting in New York City.  This thrill ride is filled with rich characters, spot-on impressions and even a disgruntled squirrel. John has performed for audiences of all shapes and sizes.  Whether it’s opening for Howie Mandel at Ceasars Palace or tickling some Irish ribs in Dublin, John isn’t stingy when he gives out the laughs.  Check out more about him and his comedy by clicking here.

Thanks to our amazing sponsors for helping to make this a successful fundraiser year after year!
