The Kansas location was started in 2017 due to a generous donation from Peter and Veronica Mallouk. The donation allowed Give Back to partner with 4 universities in Kansas and provided 150 students with scholarships at a partner school. Give Back partnered with Wichita State University, Pittsburg State University, Kansas State University, and Baker University. Scholars in the Mallouk Scholarship program received mentoring from volunteers, college preparatory activities during the school year, and continued guidance through college by Give Back staff. In 2021 Kansas launched Give Back Careers. Between the two programs Give Back Kansas has served over 180 scholars in the state.
Give Back is grateful for the Partnership and Financial Support we receive through the DCYF Youth Investment Program Grant. This grant allows us to provide long-term coaching and support to youth who are overcoming significant adversity.
