Kansas City
We are founded on giving back to our community. Before starting Kansas City Realty Services, Melissa was in social services for 10 years. When we decided to go all in, we did it with the notion that you must give back to your community. It isn't an option. We wanted to lift others up, be that a local charity or small business like ourselves. We are ALWAYS looking for the next way to help someone out. It's in our blood and it's not just for the props. We truly love Kansas City and everyone in it.
Always & Furever
In their early days, Always & Furever was nothing more than a converted barn for senior dogs to live out the rest of their days surrounded by love, a true senior sanctuary. Over the past 4 years, they have transformed into a massive operation of amazing people and more than 3,000 lives saved. They truly believe we they change the world, but not without the help of every single one of you. Our very own Amy Stoecker is heavily involved with this amazing organization.
