Great news! We are now able to accept tax-deductible donations in support of Roanoke Park's restoration through the assistance of the Kessler Society of Kansas City.

The Kessler Society is excited about the Roanoke Park restoration and its board unanimously voted to be a supporter of the project.

Checks can be made out to the Kessler Society (a 501-c3 organization) and marked for Roanoke Park. These funds will be held in our donor advised fund with them, and then be utilized as requested for the park improvements.  Checks can be sent to:

Kessler Society
P.O. Box 414853
Kansas City, MO 64141

Please include notation that the funds are for the Roanoke Park Restoration Project, either in the memo field of the check or in an accompanying letter.

The Kessler Society is a wonderful organization working tirelessly to promote, protect, restore and improve our Kansas City Parks and Boulevards. Dona Boley, the current President of the Kessler Society, has been an inspiration to us all with her and her neighbors‘ work in Hyde Park and Gillham Park.

We are fortunate to have the board of the Kessler Society recognize our efforts in Roanoke Park. A few notes about the organization:
