The Prospect KC is a ground-breaking social enterprise founded in 2019 by award-winning professional chef, Kansas City native and community activist Shanita McAfee-Bryant.  Modeled as a high-impact solution to hunger, homelessness, and poverty, the non-profit serves Kansas City's Eastside, a neighborhood struggling with food apartheid, a racist and oppressive system that creates inequitable food systems.  The Prospect KC's mission is to create lasting change through programs designed to address food access, nutrition education and culinary job training. The Prospect KC also provides comprehensive support services through a robust network of social service partnerships offering food assistance, housing, childcare, transportation, and job training.
