The HALO Headquarters are based in Kansas City, Missouri. HALO was founded in Kansas City in June 2005.  The first HALO event was created by a group of martial arts students at Kids2Leaders in Lee’s Summit, Missouri.  They raised over $5,000 for an orphanage in Mexico, and the next event they put on with other area Kansas City schools raised $40,000.  This event and others made it possible for us to grow from supporting education for an orphanage in Mexico to fully supporting 46 children in India, 3 orphanages in Kenya, programs in Uganda, and local programs.  HALO Kansas City recently opened The HALO Learning Center for at-risk and foster youth.  We are very excited about our growth and look forward to bringing more children off the streets.
