Adopt-A-School Kansas 2026
Helping Wichita-area teachers put more supplies, books, and classroom resources directly into the hands of students. Midwest Kia is proud to support Adopt-A-School Kansas as the organization celebrates 30 years of giving back.
What Is Adopt-A-School Kansas?
Adopt-A-School Kansas is a community-supported program focused on helping teachers obtain the classroom supplies and books they need for their students.
Midwest Kia, along with other participating Eck Auto Group dealerships and community partners, helps support the program's fundraising efforts so teachers throughout Wichita and surrounding communities can apply for classroom grants.
For many educators, classroom materials are expenses they otherwise may pay for personally. Adopt-A-School helps move some of that burden away from teachers and puts community support directly behind the classroom.
2026 Adopt-A-School Golf Tournament
The annual Adopt-A-School golf tournament is one of the program's primary fundraising events. The 2026 tournament is part of the organization's 30th anniversary year and will continue raising money for teacher classroom grants throughout Wichita and surrounding schools.
2026 Fundraising Goal: $150,000
The goal is to raise $150,000 to divide among applying teachers for classroom supplies and books, including educators serving Title I schools and some of the area's most underserved students.
Where the Money Goes
Adopt-A-School has helped provide thousands of teacher grants over the years. Funds raised through the program are used to help educators purchase classroom supplies, books, learning materials, and other resources that directly support students.
The organization is run by volunteers. There are no administrative salaries taken from the fundraising proceeds, helping keep the focus on classrooms and teachers.
Why Midwest Kia Supports Adopt-A-School
Wichita schools are part of the same community our employees, customers, families, and neighbors call home. Supporting teachers is one way Midwest Kia can help strengthen that community beyond the vehicles we sell and service.
The impact is practical. A sponsorship can become classroom books. A donated auction item can help fund supplies. A golf team can contribute to grants that give teachers more resources when the school year begins.
Ways to Support Adopt-A-School
Businesses, individuals, and community partners can support the annual fundraising effort in several ways.
You can also support the organization directly through the official Adopt-A-School Kansas website.
