Konza Prairie Community Health Center was the site of the Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce's Business During Hours networking event on Thursday. As part of the event, attendees from the community were given a tour of Konza and also asked to donate goods to the Konza Cupboard and Food Pantry. 

According to information posted on their website, the Konza Cupboard was established in March 2021 to help fight hunger in the community.  The Konza Cupboard is part of the Konza Cares initiative – programs developed by the clinic to increase access to food, clothing, medication, and other healthcare resources for our patients and the community.

During the month of August, Konza set a goal to reach 600 pounds of food donated. Thanks to the efforts of their staff, community members, and the Chamber of Commerce's Business During Hours event, the goal was achieved. As of Friday, August 22, 626.2 pounds of food had been donated. 

Konza is still accepting donations, and you can drop them off at the Konza Prairie Community Health Center Clinic in Junction City, located at 361 Grant Avenue.
