Jazz for Good is a charitable foundation that serves other non-profit organizations in the greater Kansas City area by providing jazz artists and ensembles at their fundraising events. Our History & Vision: Jazz for Good is the product of a shared dream of Kansas City jazz musicians who hope to see a revival in the city’s tradition of jazz. The idea was first put into motion by Doug Peete, jazz guitarist, who dreamt of seeing the jazz revival be not only here to stay, but also, for doing good. Through the development of the community shared foundation, the commitment of a few initial donors, and the talent of a few world-class jazz artists, Jazz for Good has already begun to make it’s mark on Kansas City jazz. The vision of Jazz for Good is to bring the back to Kansas City in a way that benefits charitable organizations as well as the arts. How It Works: Jazz for Good is a community shared, non-profit foundation, hosted at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. Jazz for Good exists solely through donations. All donations to the donor advised fund are tax deductible.
