We love what we do because of you! Wishing you and yours a happy day and a productive week. #KzooLISC

Sonja and Eric joined several community partners yesterday on a tour of the Kalamazoo Eastside Neighborhood Association redevelopment project at 1802 E. Main Street. Much progress has been made on this formerly abandoned building, which will soon be a new commercial space.

Due to the inclement weather, the Kalamazoo County Administration building is closed to the public, and therefore LISC will be closed today. Be safe out there!

So thankful for the leadership of Rep Morse, Julie M Rogers, Sean McCann 🇺🇸, and the foundational work done by Jon Hoadley for many years before. Good on ya’ll!

#KzooLISC staff joined colleagues from around the country in celebrating #InternationalWomensDay with the first LISC Women of the Year Awards. Here's a snapshot of just a few of the many colleagues wearing purple in honor of the day.

Jamie only has a few days left on her #Kiva campaign and needs your help! With her loan, she will expand Coffee Rescue's brick-and-mortar shop and produce a line of charitable coffee blends. Help her by sharing this story with your networks: kiva.org/lend/2517846

Don’t say I didn’t say I didn’t warn ya.
