Kum & Go is a family-owned operation run by Tanner Krause, grandson and great-grandson of the original founders. We employ 5,000+ associates in more than 400 stores across 11 states throughout the Midwest. We pride ourselves on not being a "typical" convenience retailer. Sure, we provide the products and services that you`d expect to find, fresh food to satisfy the cravings of our on-the-go customer and a selection of quality fuel products. Yet what truly sets us apart from our competitors is our people. We are proud to donate 10% of our profits to good causes in our communities. We donate food, serve meals, build houses, support schools and do whatever else a good neighbor would. Because that`s how we think of ourselves: we`re neighbors in our communities, and investing in them makes better places and better people. And better people make a better Kum & Go. Kum & Go is part of Krause Holdings, a family of businesses which also includes Solar Transport, the Des Moines Menace soccer team, Italian wineries Vietti and Enrico Serafino, in additional to real estate and agriculture operations. Cross-company career moves and opportunities are available for associates looking to broaden their horizons and diversify their career paths.
The Housing Authority of the Cherokee Nation was created in 1966 to provide decent, safe, and sanitary housing within the Cherokee Nation. Today, nearly fifty years later, we continue that original mission and are dedicated to providing housing assistance through a number of programs. Nearly 6,000 families are assisted with housing through the HACN on a number of programs. As a sub-recipient of NAHASDA funding for the Cherokee Nation we administer low-income rental housing, rental assistance, college housing, and manage a number of homes previously constructed with federal housing funds. Today, the HACN has renewed its commitment to providing new construction opportunities to Cherokee families. Through an innovative approach we offer a New Home Construction Program. This program uses funding outside of federal grant programs to provide housing. Preference is given to families that own their own land or has a family member that is willing to donate land for construction.
