UMB Big Bash grants support the efforts of local, mid-sized not-for-profits to improve the community in a positive way with special emphasis on strengthening families, restoring neighborhoods, developing future leaders and improving health and wellness.
UMB Big Bash has committed nearly $200,000 dollars to local non-profit organizations since the inaugural UMB Big Bash concert in 2010. Each year, the event's proceeds benefit two pre-selected, not-for-profit organizations. Past charity beneficiaries are Cultivate Kansas City and Reach Out and Read Kansas City.
