Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City
Rise is a very unique event, hosted by Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City, where attendees “crawl” through exclusive private rooftops of the Crossroads District, with incredible views of the downtown skyline. The theme this year was “Road Trip,” and partygoers journeyed through Texas, California, New York City, and Colorado. Guests enjoyed drinks, delicious fare, music, and an afterparty celebration.
