Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Back to School Bash on August 1, 2026! 

It was an incredible day filled with smiles, fun, school supplies, and community spirit as we helped students get ready for a successful school year. Thank you to our volunteers, sponsors, and every family who came out to celebrate with us.

Thank you to everyone who attended the recent Kankakee United Community Meeting at the Kankakee High School Community Center! Community members came together to share ideas, discuss important initiatives, and strengthen partnerships that help build a safer, healthier, and more connected Kankakee.
