#MONARCHSHAVEHEART

Many of you probably know the iconic KC heart emblem seen on shirts acrossed Kansas City – but do you know the origins? How did a little heart become an icon for our city? A badge of pride and support. The story takes us all the way back to 1942 – with a little heart and a lot of hustle. This is the story of how the MONARCHS fueled citywide pride over 80 years later.
