(KC G.I.F.T.)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nIn February 2025, the group created the \u2018Savor the City\u2019 Black-owned dining passport to encourage patrons at Kansas City restaurants. The new passport is a step further in that it focuses on arts and entertainment. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt is important for us to continue to identify innovative ways that we can drive support to Black owned businesses in a way that fosters economic equity, and KC G.I.F.T. remains dedicated to supporting Black-owned businesses through aggressive funding and support,\u201d said Brandon Calloway, CEO\/Co-Founder of Kansas City G.I.F.T. \u201cAs a community, it is up to us to actively create the world we want to see. This passport offers a fun and engaging way for people to take action on that and make a difference by supporting local Black entrepreneurs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Calloway noted that the new passport includes organizations like the Mutual Musicians Foundation, the Jazz Museum and In Good Company, to name a few. <\/p>\n
Both passports can be picked up at the G.I.F.T. Business Center, 5008 Prospect Ave., as well as select restaurants. <\/p>\n
