Families would have to drive or take the bus to large grocery stores in other areas of town if they wanted a selection of healthy foods. The Argentine Betterment Corporation (ABC) built a grocery store in 2014 which is leased to a private corporation. Financing for the project was provided by a bank and the Unified Government of Wyandotte County Kansas. 54119 0 0 Healthy Challenge: Wyandotte County is ranked near last as 94th out of 101 counties in Kansas for health. Many factors influence health, and poor and minority families, like many of those in Argentine, are especially at risk because their community lacks the resources to encourage activity and often lack outdoor space for kids to play safe. Through community collaborations, ABC and its partners have implemented a numbers of ways in which healthy lifestyles for Argentine residents can be improved. ABC provides growth resources and advocacy for neighborhood groups, youth programming, residents, businesses and institutions to improve the quality of life for our community. ABC does this by attending crucial government meetings, participating in discussions about local and regional concerns and communicating this information back to Argentine residents. This is achieved by scheduling and attending local neighborhood watch and homeowners meetings. 37426 0 4955 Community Events: ABC works in partnership with residents, businesses and institutions to improve the quality of life for our community through three community annual events. Serve Day is the springtime neighborhood community clean-up; Silver City Day, the neighborhood pride event and parade; Argentine Holiday Lighting ceremony, which kicks off the holiday season for the neighborhood and provides holiday gifts to over 350 children. These events impact two to four thousand residents and young people. 0 0 0 312222 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 9 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 5 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X X Micah King 8165292724 PO Box 6613 Kansas City KS 66106 Micah King Executive Director 40 0 X 63846 0 0 Kathryn Meyer President 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Tara Lindahl Secretary/Treasurer 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Amanda Sebilla Board Member 5 0 X 0 0 0 Patrick Dunn Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Leticia Garcia Board Member 5 0 X 0 0 0 63846 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 313464 505 0 313969 Community Events 624190 4955 4955 0 0 Rental Income 531120 98421 98421 0 0 0 0 0 0 103376 0 0 0 0 0 Rebates and Refunds 900099 138 138 0 0 0 0 0 0 138 417483 103514 0 0 X 64084 38451 25633 0 4652 2791 1861 0 7500 0 7500 0 12437 0 12437 0 42463 41813 650 0 5756 992 4764 0 2257 189 2068 0 37 0 37 0 28218 28218 0 0 81348 81348 0 0 7397 7240 157 0 Community Events & Programs 16488 16323 165 0 Real Estate Taxes 74703 74390 313 0 Repairs & Maintenance 20888 20467 421 0 368228 312222 56006 0 36437 165423 8101 7947 72797 3560 472 3418231 466193 3030411 2952038 15315 13646 371557 371625 3534618 3514711 8329 6351 631234 564050 639563 570401 X 2852946 2892315 42109 51995 2895055 2944310 3534618 3514711 49255 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 245718 347427 298654 239473 313969 1445241 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 245718 347427 298654 239473 313969 1445241 0 1445241 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 90 0 29 0 138 257 1445498 713316 0.99982 0.99990 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Other Income - 2015: Reimbursement; 2017: Refund; and 2019: Refund and rebates.
