MADMINTON is KC’s annual badminton tournament benefiting one of our favorite nonprofits Giving the Basics. We helped last year and it was a lot of fun, this year promises to be just as entertaining with crazy costumes, food/drink, music & games. 

Serve KC volunteers will help by selling t-shirts, run the Pick-a-Prize table, help security with wristbands & collect donations outside the beer garden. Volunteers will need to be comfortable talking to attendees and represent the nonprofit charity Giving the Basics. 

Please arrive no later than 3:15 for a quick info session & training before your shift starts at 3:30 pm.

Volunteers are welcome to come early and watch the matches. We will also need help with cleanup following the event if you are able to stay. 

Giving the Basics provides products for dignity — deodorant, shampoo, toothpaste, toilet paper, baby wipes, trash bags, laundry detergent, etc. — that are not covered by government assistance; to people in need. Many of the local food pantries, shelters and schools benefit from the donations made to this nonprofit.
