Kansas City Mavericks News Release


Kansas City, MO - In the lead-up to their highly anticipated Top Gun/Military Appreciation Night on January 18, the Kansas City Mavericks are dedicating the week to giving back to the brave men and women who have served our country.

Players Victor Ostman, Logan Neaton, Daniel Amesbury, Cam Morrison, Justin MacPherson, Nolan Sullivan, Damien Giroux, and Cade Borchardt toured the VCP facilities and volunteered in the Outreach Center, where they packed food boxes for veterans staying at VCP Village.

Located at 89th and Troost in Kansas City, Missouri, VCP Village is a community of 49 fully furnished tiny homes that provide veterans experiencing homelessness with safe, dignified housing. In addition to housing, VCP offers personalized support services that address critical challenges such as health, employment, and education, empowering veterans to achieve long-term stability and independence.

The Kansas City Mavericks are proud to support initiatives like VCP as part of their ongoing commitment to honoring veterans.
