Kokomo Urban Outreach Turns 20 in 2026!

Written By Heidi Pruitt

Can you believe it? Next year marks 20 years of Kokomo Urban Outreach serving, loving, and transforming lives in our community. And we’re celebrating BIG!

We’re forming a 20th Anniversary Planning Committee to bring back some of the outreach events that made an impact over the years—Buddy Bags, neighborhood meals, Food to You, Baby University, Kidmo, the horse program, and more! We also want to create new events to celebrate with the community.

If you've ever:

  • Packed a Buddy Bag

  • Served a hot meal or in the food pantry

  • Helped with flood or tornado relief

  • Donated clothes, supplies, or finances

  • Painted, built, or prayed over this mission

  • Volunteered with any KUO outreach program

Then YOU are part of this story—and we need your help to plan this celebration!

  • Planning Kickoff Meeting

  • Tuesday, April 22

  • 6:30 PM

  • Main Street United Methodist Church, 830 S. Main St.

Bring your stories, ideas, and heart. Let’s honor the past, celebrate the present, and set the stage for the next 20 years of Unleashing Potential™ in Kokomo!

Come ready to plan something amazing!

Let’s show Kokomo what 20 years of UP™ looks like—and what’s still to come!
