How does treasure KC help local Kansas City businesses and community projects or charities grow and succeed?

Treasure KC helps Kansas City businesses grow by bringing them a consistent community of members who are actively looking for local deals, perks, and places to shop. Merchants get more foot traffic, repeat customers, and spotlight marketing through the platform—turning everyday shoppers into loyal regulars. At the same time, Treasure KC helps community projects and charities by directing real funding and attention to local impact work, with community voting and governance oversight so the right projects get supported. The result is one ecosystem where spending stays local, businesses win, and KC neighborhoods see visible progress.

What should people know about how winners are chosen or how community projects are funded to ensure everyone feels it's fair and transparent?

Winners are chosen with a clear, documented process — not “hand-picked.” Each drawing is run on schedule using a random selection method, then winners go through verification before anything is awarded. We keep internal records (draw logs, winner verification, and audit checks) so results can be reviewed. For community project funding, members vote to select the Top 5, and then the final winner is chosen by a random drawing from that Top 5 — with oversight from a 5-member governance board. After funding is awarded, we publish simple updates so the community can see what was funded and what changed.
