Homer B. Reed Memorial Fund

A gift to the Homer B. Reed Memorial Fund is an investment in both legacy and impact. Established by the descendants of Dr. Homer B. Reed, this fund honors the visionary whose work helped shape disability services in northwest Kansas and laid the foundation for what is now Developmental Services of Northwest Kansas.

In 1967, the Homer B. Reed Adjustment and Training Center opened in Hays, Kansas, creating new opportunities for individuals with disabilities and demonstrating a powerful belief: that every person is capable of learning, growth, and meaningful participation. As organizations across the region came together, DSNWK was formed to expand that vision even further.

Today, donations to the Homer B. Reed Memorial Fund help ensure DSNWK can continue providing essential services, strengthening programs, and meeting the evolving needs of the individuals and families we serve. Your generosity carries Dr. Reed’s vision forward—transforming lives and building a more inclusive future for generations to come.
