Park Agencies Teams Up with Mt. Carmel Redevelopment to Combat Homelessness in the Greater Kansas City Area
Overland Park, KS (PRWEB) May 26, 2015 -- Park Agencies, a full service insurance agency with offices in Kansas and Montana, recently joined forces with Mt. Carmel Redevelopment in a continuing effort to provide direct assistance and access to critical community services for the growing homeless population in Kansas City. Efforts are headquartered in the Wilhelma Gill Service Center, a community resource center that has been managed by Mt. Carmel since 2002. Known locally as “Willa Gill,” the resource center provides personalized support to assist homeless persons in accomplishing their goals, with the overarching aim of reducing homelessness in the greater Kansas City area.
“Willa Gill makes a huge difference to folks that are down on their luck in this area, and it has for over a decade,” says Jason Park, owner of Park Agencies. “We’re doing everything we can to pitch in and help out, and we’re getting the word out in the hopes that local community members will step up and do their part to help the homeless.”
The Willa Gill center offers a telephone and voice mail center for homeless and/or phoneless persons of Wyandotte County, giving them much needed access to employers, potential employers, family, and government agencies throughout the area. In addition, the Willa Gill Mail Slot Service empowers homeless clients to secure critical community services as well as allowing resource center employees to conduct interviews with clients to determine ongoing needs and resource requirements.
By utilizing a host of internal resources along with a large network of clients and business partners, Park Agencies is actively contacting customers, friends, family and neighbors in an effort to gather donations to ensure that the Willa Gill is fully staffed and supplied. In addition to assisting the local homeless population of Kansas City, Park Agencies is dedicated to devoting resources to a new cause every 30-60 days. “Even a small donation can make a big difference in someone’s life,” says Mr. Park.
Those who wish to support the Willa Gill center and assist the homeless population of Kansas City are encouraged to visit the Park Agencies Willa Gill charity page and donate directly. For more information on the community causes supported by Park Agencies, visit their Community Causes page here.
