Love. Lead. Serve.

Love. Lead. Serve. Love. Lead. Serve. Love. Lead. Serve.

Many Parts, One Body is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to providing free food to our community.

A Brief History of Many Parts, One Body:

MANY PARTS, ONE BODY

Our "Why"

 At Many Parts, One Body, we believe in a simple yet profound concept: we are all connected, each of us a vital part of a greater whole. Inspired by the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Corinthians, we believe that all of us make up many parts of a single body in Christ. This isn’t just the basis for our mission, it is the driving force behind everything we do. 


1 Corinthians 12:12 "For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ."

WHAT WE DO:

Providing Free Meals in Jackson County

Many Parts, One Body is a tax-deductible, registered 501(c)(3) organization that collects donations and provides free food to our community. Our mission is to bring the community together and support those facing hardship. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have been able to serve free meals to homeless populations, foster care facilities, shelters for single moms, Ronald McDonald House KC, struggling families in local school districts, and more. By donating time or resources, you can make a real difference in the lives of those we serve.

Check out some highlights from our Missouri Disabled Sportsmen fundraiser!

Donate Here!

Your financial support allows us to buy food to prepare for those in need. We are a completely volunteer-run organization that relies on the generosity of the community to feed our neighbors. Every dime we collect goes to food or means with which to serve food to our community.

Right now we are currently focusing our attention on the greater Kansas City Metro area and the greater Jackson County areas.


Our main goal is and always will be to provide good food to those in need in our community completely free of charge. We will regularly serve with homeless shelters, foster care centers, shelters for mothers and children, and other services caring for the most vulnerable members of our society. We also provide sponsored, catered meals to organizations who are raising money for similar missions. For example, the Missouri Disabled Sportsmen hold a fundraiser every year that we provid BBQ for. Instead of MDS spending $2,500 on catering for their event, we were able to provide pulled pork for everybody for free, allowing MDS to refocus the $2,500 they would have spent on food back to the children and veterans they serve as a part of their mission. All catered events are individually sponsored.


Check out the "Grocery Assistance" section of the website above for our email to get started.


We currently focus our attention on food and meal assistance, but we frequently partner with another local nonprofit organization called "K'ing the Cold" that works to distribute cold weather items to folks in need. You can find their Facebook page and contact information using this link here.


Discrimination Policy:

  “Many Parts, One Body is committed to providing good food to those in need in our community regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability, financial status, or other identity. We believe it is the call of Jesus Christ to serve all people in need and strive to do just that.”
