Blue KC Gamechanger Honorees

Launched during the 2024 season, Blue KC and the Kansas City Current have teamed up to create the Blue KC Gamechanger program. This is an exclusive program highlighting local individuals blazing the trail for all women across the Kansas City area.

A Blue KC Gamechanger inspires bold ambition in all their work, enriching the community around them, and enacting positive change through intentional action. You can make a difference by supporting our community and nominating a worthy individual to be the next Blue KC Gamechanger!
