New Ways to Donate a Dollar to KCRW Charities

New in 2026, KC Restaurant Week is going further for a good cause.

For the first time, diners seeking a sweet treat or something quick can also participate in the best tradition that comes along with KCRW: The chance to raise money for nonprofits doing important work in the Kansas City area.

Participating locations across the region are offering selected menu items with the commitment to contribute proceeds to this year's KC Restaurant Week charitable cause. At the locations listed below, just arrive and order the featured offering. That's all it takes for your outing to become an opportunity to raise more funds for a great purpose!
