WHY: The Junior League of Kansas City, Missouri introduced its first Holiday
Mart in 1988 with a total of 32 retailers and 10,000 shoppers. It was
staffed by only 82 Junior League of Kansas City, Missouri volunteers
raising a grand total of $94,000. Since then, Holiday Mart has
annually increased the number of retailers to over 200, attendance to
over 22,000 shoppers and volunteers to over 350, while becoming one of
the premiere Holiday Mart events in the country. Holiday Mart, the
Junior League’s largest fund raiser, will celebrate it 20th year in
Kansas City this year, and will contribute to over the $4,700,000 in
monies generated to date to support projects in our Kansas City
community, including our Impact Area, Children’s Literacy.
