Kindest Kansas Citian Essay Contest

34th Annual Kindest Kansas Citian Contest 2024

Thirty-four years ago, students in Greater Kansas City wrote essays about the kindest people they knew and entered them into a contest for the first time. Today, thousands of students still participate in this Kansas City tradition. Regardless of whether you have been a part of this tradition for years, or you are new to the contest, we at Synergy Services want to invite you to participate in 2024!

Here's how students (K-12) can participate! 

Write a one-page essay or drawing nominating an individual or group you feel deserves to be the "Kindest Kansas Citian".

Submit your essay or drawing by Friday, February 16th, 2024!

Wait to see if your submission is selected as one of the grade level winners to be honored on Friday, May 3rd at the Kindest Kansas Citian Awards Celebration at the Kansas City Zoo & Sobela Ocean Aquarium.
