SC Selected by the Kansas Leadership Center for a 2025 Leadership Transformation Grant

Winfield, Kan., Oct. 22, 2024 — The Kansas Leadership Center (KLC) has selected 100 organizations across Kansas as 2025 Leadership Transformation Grant (LTG) partners. The grants will help the partner organizations create a culture that embraces change, tackles problems, and seizes opportunities.

“This grant allows us to engage key members across our campus community in leadership development that will help us make progress on strategic initiatives,” says J.K. Campbell, vice president for academic affairs and dean of faculty at Southwestern College.  “I appreciate KLC giving Southwestern the opportunity to participate in leadership training experiences that will build our capacity to embrace change and meet challenges in productive and influential ways.”

Organizations which receive a Leadership Transformation Grant will establish a core team of three to six individuals to take on the responsibilities of the grant. Organizations chosen will have one year to participate in KLC’s dynamic program experiences and utilize KLC resources and consultation.

“KLC has been awarding grants to civically engaged organizations around the state for the past 10 years and we look forward to helping them make lasting progress on their biggest challenges. We’re proud to see this program grow every year since we started offering these grants,” said Kaye Monk-Morgan, president and CEO of the Kansas Leadership Center.

In the 10 years of awarding these grants, KLC has given 700 grants, trained more than 15,000 people, and partnered with more than 350 Kansas organizations and communities.
