KC Job Fair: A Powerful Platform for Nonprofits to Connect Talent with Opportunity

The Women’s Employment Network (WEN) is excited to announce that the KC Job Fair returns on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at the Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center. For over 15 years, this event has been one of Kansas City’s largest and most affordable hiring events—bringing together employers, job seekers, and community organizations committed to strengthening our local workforce.


This year, WEN is encouraging nonprofits in the employment, workforce development, and social services sectors to share this opportunity with their employer partners—and to take advantage of the special nonprofit exhibitor rate of just $300.

Why This Event Matters for Kansas City
The KC Job Fair is more than a hiring event. It’s a a chance to enhance the economic success of Kansas City! By sharing or by participating you organization can:

  • Connect clients directly with hiring employers in industries ranging from healthcare to hospitality, finance, and education.
  • Strengthen employer partnerships by inviting corporate partners to exhibit, expand their recruitment reach, and support your organization’s mission.
  • Promote your organization’s programs to a diverse pool of job seekers actively looking to advance their careers.
Benefits for Exhibiting Employers
Employers—whether corporate or nonprofit—receive:
  • Booth space in a spacious, well-organized venue with high foot traffic.
  • Company name and hyperlink on the WEN website, plus promotion via web, print, job clubs, and social media.
  • Access to a wide pool of qualified candidates.
  • Free parking for two vehicles, WiFi access, and all contributions tax-deductible.

Special Nonprofit Rate
Nonprofit organizations can exhibit for just $300, half the standard employer rate, making this one of the most affordable and impactful ways to connect with top talent in Kansas City.


Help Us Spread the Word
WEN invites nonprofits to share this opportunity with their networks and employer partners. Together, we can connect skilled candidates with meaningful career opportunities and strengthen our community’s workforce.

Let’s work together to make the 2025 KC Job Fair the most impactful yet by connecting people, employers, and opportunities that strengthen Kansas City’s workforce and community.
