The Lenexa-based Westside Family Church is organizing a metro-wide food and resource drive, planned for May 2, with the assistance of an inter-denominational group of Kansas City-area churches known as What if The Church.

While churches across the metro, including some in Johnson County, have hosted food drives the last few weeks, Westside Family Church Pastor Matt Adams helped devise an outreach plan with a potentially greater impact: Partner with several churches for one large food drive to benefit local pantries.

“As we have each hosted various drives, one thing became very clear: Kansas City has a big heart to help others,” Adams said in the release. “We got to thinking that we could amplify our impact and help more people if we unified our efforts city-wide. We are excited to see what happens.”
