Kansas Health Foundation thinking big again

Everybody talks about the need for leaders, but the planned Kansas Health Foundation Leadership Center aims to do something about it. To be announced this morning, the center expects to open in downtown Wichita by spring 2007, then draw on $30 million in foundation funds over 10 years to help cultivate the leaders Kansas will need to handle its challenges locally and statewide in the coming decades. Many won’t see an obvious connection between leadership and health, the Wichita-based foundation’s mission. But the center is the latest example of this impressive foundation’s big thinking, which in this case could result in not only better health but a better state.
