On Wednesday, Sept. 9th, and again on Thursday, Sept. 10th the Mid America Chapter honored two individuals who have made outstanding philanthropic, civic, and business contributions in the Kansas City and St. Joseph area. These men are visionary leaders who are not content to sit idly by. Instead, they have leveraged their resources and mobilized others to reach out and impact the lives of thousands and provide hope for a cure.
