Johnson County Community Foundation (JCCF) representatives are executing a new, five-year strategic plan, called JCCF Together, which will guide the Foundation’s work from 2026 through 2030. The plan reflects JCCF’s continued endeavor to strengthening community connections, expanding philanthropic impact and enhancing quality of life across Johnson County.
“At the heart of this plan is the belief that our greatest progress happens when we work together,” said Kim Kasting, JCCF president and CEO. “JCCF Together reflects our commitment to listening, leading and partnering with our community to create meaningful and lasting impact.”
Kim says JCCF Together was developed through thoughtful reflection, community input and collaboration. "It builds on JCCF’s role as a trusted partner and leading voice for community involvement and investment," she adds.
JCCF was founded in 1991 as a tax-exempt public charity. The new strategic plan outlines four key priorities that will shape JCCF’s work over the next five years:
- Awareness and Connection: Expanding awareness ensures more people know about and can benefit from JCCF’s work, strengthening the group's ability to make a difference across the region.
- Deepen Donor Engagement and Grow Support: Stronger donor relationships build trust and long-term support, ensuring JCCF’s resources continue to meet community needs for generations to come.
- Lead and Convene for Greater Community Impact: By stepping into a leadership role and bringing others together, JCCF an address complex community challenges more effectively and equitably.
- Strengthen Internal Tools and Team Capacity: Investing in people and systems allows JCCF to operate more effectively and sustainably, maximizing our impact on the community the Foundation serves.
Through this strategic plan, Kim assures that JCCF supporters embrace a shared call to action. "Together, we can tell JCCF’s story far and wide, strengthen relationships with donors and partners, lead important conversations about community needs and invest in solutions that help every person and neighborhood thrive," she reminds.
