The Community Critical Needs Fund will provide grants to local nonprofits addressing critical needs such as food, housing, transportation and health care.

The goal is simple: to make sure no one in our community goes without help when they need it most.

Today, many local nonprofits are seeing both reduced income and increased demand for essential services. The Community Critical Needs Fund ensures these organizations can continue their vital work, keeping families and individuals in our community safe and cared for.

To help the fund grow, local philanthropists and longtime Kearney residents Rhonda Artrup and Pam Radtke have generously offered a $75,000 challenge match, doubling the impact of every gift made.
