Their motto "Investing in Families by Investing in Communities" is the belief shared by founders, Lamar Hunt Jr. and James Arkell. Both men live by these words each day. Meet our two passionate founders: Lamar Hunt, Jr. Lamar Hunt, Jr. comes from a family of investors. Over fifty years ago, his father Lamar Hunt invested in a new professional sports league called the American Football League (AFL) and started a team called the Dallas Texans. Before the AFL successfully merged with the older and more established NFL, Mr. Hunt relocated the team changing its name to the Kansas City Chiefs. After the success of the United States hosting the 1994 Soccer World Cup, Lamar Hunt, Jr.'s father became a founder/investor in Major League Soccer (MLS) in 1996 and the Hunt family continues to be the owners/operators of the Columbus Crew and FC Dallas franchises. This legacy laid the foundation for Lamar Hunt Jr.'s understanding of the importance of investing in communities. In 1994, Lamar Hunt, Jr. began his own career in both business and philanthropy. He served on several private school boards in the Dallas area and became active in various charitable endeavors. This early philanthropic work culminated in the present service on the Advisory Board of Catholic Radio, KEXS 1090 Kansas City/Excelsior Springs, Missouri . Recently, the Archbishop of Kansas City , Kansas , the Most Reverend Joseph F. Naumann named Lamar Hunt Jr. as one of twelve members of the Case Review Task Force. In addition, Mr. Hunt also serves on the board of the Kansas City Chief's Charitable Foundation. Both he and his spouse, Rita, have their own charitable trust that makes gifts in the Dallas and Kansas City metro areas. With regards to his business career, Lamar Hunt Jr. is the founding/managing partner of Loretto Properties, LLC. He is on the advisory board of the Arrowhead Trusts which manages the Hunt family's interest in the Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL and FC Dallas of the MLS. Lamar also serves on the board of directors of Hunt Midwest Enterprises, a Kansas City company specializing in real estate development and mining. Mr. Hunt is married to Rita Hunt. Between them, they are the proud parents of nine children and two grandchildren.
