KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — The Kalamazoo Gospel Mission will remain open during the coronavirus situation.
In a Facebook video, Pastor Michael Brown, president and CEO of the Mission, stated that steps were in place to ensure that service to those who have no place to go will continue.
The Mission has been given “hospital” status which allows them to keep their doors open to anyone in need.
On their website it states, “We have implemented protocols that address the number of people gathered together in one room, following the recommendations set forth by the CDC in regard to keeping surfaces clean and hand washing, and monitoring signs of any illness in our guests.”
Brown added that many different supplies are needed to help keep their operation going.
Here are some ways to help:
- Be a volunteer – If you are healthy and feel comfortable serving, please consider volunteering, especially in Food Service. Please contact Matt Furrow (mfurrow@kzoogospel.org) or go here for more information.
- New and unused “To Go” Containers- They need 400 boxes per day to give to go boxes for all meal times.
- Cleaning Supplies
- Monetary Donations – The mission states that they are experiencing increased costs because more are coming for help.
More information can be found at their website.
