Teen Founder Builds Community Through Tragedy | Kansas City News
Description
At just 15, Sammie Magee launched Sammie’s Toy Drive after the Uvalde shooting to support families hit by tragedy — from gun violence to floods and local accidents. Now she’s hosting a community fundraiser in Leawood this Saturday to fund a free summer event with bounce houses, face painting, and vital resources — all designed to bring families together and erase isolation. Kids seven and up pay $1; younger ones get in free. It’s more than a fundraiser — it’s a movement built on connection, compassion, and a calling that refuses to fade.
