Pass It On Outdoor Mentors Names Kansas City Safari Club International Sponsor of the Year
Pass It On Outdoor Mentors is proud to recognize Kansas City Safari Club International (KC SCI) as its Sponsor of the Year, honoring its extraordinary partnership and impact on youth hunting and mentorship. KC SCI served as the official Upland Hunt Sponsor of the Year, providing the critical resources needed to introduce hundreds of Kansas youth to upland bird hunting through safe, mentored experiences in the field.
This award celebrates KC SCI’s unwavering commitment to preserving outdoor traditions by supporting programs that make a lasting difference in young lives. Their sponsorship allowed Pass It On Outdoor Mentors to host numerous upland hunting events across Kansas, helping youth—many of whom had never hunted before—gain the confidence, knowledge, and respect for the outdoors that come with guided, ethical hunting.
“Kansas City SCI didn’t just sponsor hunts—they helped create life-changing experiences for kids who might never have had the chance to get outside and be mentored in this way. Through KC SCI's donation we hosted 53 upland game hunts in Kansas”, said Brittany French, CEO of Pass It On Outdoor Mentors. “Their leadership in youth outreach and conservation is inspiring, and we’re honored to recognize them as our Sponsor of the Year.”
KC SCI, the Kansas City chapter of Safari Club International, has long been a champion of hunter education, conservation, and advocacy. Their investment in Pass It On Outdoor Mentors not only made upland hunts possible but also directly supported event coordination of upland hunts in Kansas. The success of these hunts would not have been possible without KC SCI’s generosity, advocacy, and belief in the power of mentorship.
“It’s incredibly rewarding to know that our support is giving Kansas youth the opportunity to learn upland hunting in a safe, educational, and meaningful way,” said Brian Bode, President at KC SCI. “We believe that mentorship in the outdoors is one of the most effective ways to build character, promote conservation, and carry on the hunting heritage we value so deeply.”
