Olathe’s civic and community groups span a history of service to our community of over 100 years.
We believe that every act of kindness contributes to our community’s flourishing. Whether you’re looking to lend a hand, share your talents, or bring joy to a neighbor, there are countless ways to grow within our community.
For several reasons, involvement in a civic or community group (a nonprofit) is important.
You have a voice. When you join a community or civic group, you help shape its direction. Your ideas, feedback, and leadership matter—and they help guide meaningful action.
You find your people. Nonprofit and civic groups are filled with passionate, like-minded neighbors who care about the same things you do. It’s more than volunteering—it’s connection, friendship, and shared purpose.
You support real impact. Membership helps nonprofits thrive. Your time, dues, and contributions fuel the programs and services that lift others up—right here in Olathe.
You gain resources and opportunities. Members often have access to training, networking, and leadership opportunities that enrich your personal and professional life.
You make a difference—locally and beyond. Supporting a nonprofit isn’t just about helping one cause. It’s about creating ripples of impact that touch individuals, families, and the community as a whole.
Finding a group that matches with your interest and passion (maybe even more than one) is how you bloom where you are planted. Joining a group can provide you with a sense of purpose, community, and impact. It can also help support the group’s mission and contribute to positive social change.
No matter your age, background, or skillset—there’s a place for you to grow, give, and belong.
