Community Outreach

Triple-I is committed to making a positive difference where we live and work. Since our founding in 1971, we have reached out to help many through philanthropic efforts and volunteer support. Most recently, we have been pleased to help our communities by supporting these very important causes:

Toys for Tots

Every year Triple-I chooses a charity to help sponsor during the Holiday Season. Again, in 2010 we chose Toys for Tots. Toys for Tots is a program of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve that collects new, unwrapped toys each year to distribute as Christmas gifts to needy children. The primary goal of Toys for Tots is to deliver, through a shiny new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to needy youngsters that will motivate them to grow into responsible, productive, patriotic citizens and community leaders.

Please feel free to visit the local Kansas City Toys for Tots website for any additional information.

Step Up for Downs

Each year 5,000 babies are born with Down syndrome and there are over 400,000 individuals living with Down syndrome in the United States. These families depend heavily on local support organizations to receive information, resources and education on Down syndrome. They also appreciate and benefit from ongoing advocacy and awareness efforts which improve the lives of entire families and communities. The Down Syndrome Guild of Greater Kansas City (DSG) serves over 1100 families, 22 hospitals and 45 school districts in Kansas and Missouri.

Wounded Warrior Project™

The Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) exists to honor and empower wounded warriors who incurred service-connected injures on or after September 11, 2001. Tens of thousands of wounded warriors and caregivers receive support each year through WWP programs designed to nurture the mind and body, and encourage economic empowerment and engagement. The purpose of WWP is to:

To raise awareness and enlist the public's aid for the needs of injured service members.
To help injured service members aid and assist each other.
To provide unique, direct programs and services to meet the needs of injured service members.

With the mission to honor and empower wounded warriors, WWP is the hand extended to encourage warriors as they adjust to their new normal and achieve new triumphs. Offering a variety of programs and services, WWP is equipped to serve warriors with every type of injury – from the physical to the invisible wounds of war.
