Grant-funded digital upgrades

Grant-powered local growth
Make your business thrive without draining your cash flow.
ThriveKS connects Leavenworth-area businesses with grants and modern tools so you can upgrade your website, marketing, and operations with little or no upfront cost.
No pressure, no jargon — just a quick check to see what funding and support you may qualify for as a Kansas small business.
What you get
Modern tools, real-world results.
Local visibility that actually works
From Google Business optimization to review funnels and local SEO, ThriveKS is built to bring more people through your door or to your online checkout.
A real partner, not just a vendor
We sit on the same side of the table as you — focused on long-term jobs, revenue, and keeping talent right here in Leavenworth and Northeast Kansas.
How it works
Simple three-step process.
1
Quick intake
You share a bit about your business, goals, and current online presence. We use that to match you with relevant grants and programs.
2
Grant + plan
We outline a project scope — website, marketing, automations — and help you submit the paperwork with ThriveKS listed as the implementation partner.
3
Build & launch
Once funding is approved, we build, launch, and tune everything with you — so the tech supports your day-to-day operations, not the other way around.
Built in collaboration with local leaders who care about keeping businesses — and kids — here in Kansas.
Working alongside the Chamber of Commerce
ThriveKS is developing programming in partnership with the Leavenworth
Chamber of Commerce to make it easier for small businesses to access
modern tools, training, and funding.
The goal is simple: create the kind of opportunities that keep the
next generation living, working, and building in our community instead
of moving away to find growth somewhere else.
