As many of you have heard, things have been difficult for our organization over the last few months. We have moved from our Kansas City facility to a small office in Overland Park. At the same time, we reduced our staff by over fifty percent.
We have responded by reaching out to local churches and setting up a satellite location in Wyandotte to meet with all our clients downtown. At the same time, we have meeting with other clients at various locations (such as meeting them at the DMV to help with identification issues or meeting with them at transitional housing sites) and giving them assistance over the phone.
However, even after the downsizing, funding continues to be an issue. In mid-June, our board strongly considered closing the organization but a local church asked us to explore other funding options with them.
In the midst of all this, Fox 4 News was kind enough to feature our organization and send out a plea to continue the work that that has done so much for families in Kansas City.
Regardless of our current circumstance, we would like to say thank you to all of our donors past and present. You have allowed us to touch so many lives. We hope to touch many more.
