A staple service provider at Project Connect is the West Michigan College of Barbering and Beauty. The college seeks to provide the beauty industry with hair designers (Cosmetology, Barbering, Instructors, and Nail Technicians) who are respected by their employers and their profession. At Project Connect the students of the college provide haircuts free of charge! We are excited to have them back again for our Project Connect event on May 8th!

The Kalamazoo County Poverty Reduction initiative and its partners are gearing up for the May 8th Project Connect event!  For those new to the Project, check out this great video from the Public Media Network of Kalamazoo for some firsthand accounts of what makes Project Connect such a special community event:

Community Member Knits Hats for Project Connect Participants

The Poverty Reduction Initiative and the Project Connect Planning Team would like to give a big thank you to Marilyn Burgess for knitting dozens of hats for our November 14th Project Connect Event.  The support of community members like Marilyn are what make Project Connect such a special experience for participants, volunteers and service providers, and we greatly appreciate her efforts.
