Some of you might be familiar with the deeply loyal following we have at KC Bier Co. for Bundesliga — Germany’s premier soccer league — and might have seen the crowds that fill the Bierhalle on Saturdays cheering for their favorite clubs. Not only are these fans passionate about German football and bier, they’re equally passionate about helping the local community, which is why we’re pleased to announce a Spring Diaper Drive for the Bishop Sullivan Center in partnership with FC Bayern Kingdom KC, Kansas City’s official fan club for FC Bayern-Munich.
Starting April 17 through May 15, we are collecting diapers, wipes and baby food in the Bierhalle during regular business hours and as early as 9:00 am on Saturdays. When you donate items, you’ll receive a $5 off voucher that can be redeemed toward purchases in the Bierhalle and a raffle ticket to be entered into a drawing on May 22. (One voucher given for single donation visit, not per item donated).
The Bishop Sullivan Center’s programs support three pillars: food, jobs, and aid. The Center began with one food pantry in 1972 and has expanded to two locations with multiple programs including One City Café, Employment Services, household assistance, a clothes closet, Kansas City’s Medicine Cabinet, and its new “Rick’s Kids” service providing items including diapers, wipes, and baby food for low-income children.
“FC Bayern Kingdom KC was established in 2015 as an official fan club of the German record champions, and we welcome all local fans to join us for watch parties as well as various initiatives in our community,” said Joey Nasternak, chairman of FC Bayern Kingdom KC.
“As we continue to grow and evolve, the Bishop Sullivan Center is our logical partner for community outreach. The Sullivan Center is passionate in implementing their mission of supporting our neighbors with food, medical needs, and employment opportunities, and we are grateful that they will help us reach as many people as possible with our charitable efforts.”
