JoAnna Long
Project Manager
Prior to joining the Variety team, JoAnna was an avid volunteer for multiple charities and organizations throughout the Kansas City area including Variety KC for the past 2 1/2 years. She brings with her many years of leadership & administrative experience. JoAnna has served her previous communities as a paraprofessional working with kids that have special abilities and also served on a charity board that was in charge of the development of inclusive playgrounds in Minnesota. JoAnna has always had a passion for serving others and helping people succeed. With Variety KC’s mission of helping all kids be active, be social and belong, JoAnna was inspired to become a part of this #Inclusion Revolution, alongside her husband, Luke, who also serves as a board member for Variety. When she is not out volunteering in the community, JoAnna enjoys reading, plants, traveling and spending time with family.
