Kay’s Way raises more than $18,000

August 28, 2024  /  Liz Conway

Kay’s Way wrapped up in May, raising $18,700 in donations. This year’s contributions included a Ford Expedition filled with feminine hygiene products, bed sheets, towels and laundry detergent for the benefit of women and girls in Isabella County.

Donations include $4,000 worth of supplies and $3,500 in cash from area residents and businesses. Krapohl Ford & Lincoln contributed $3,700 from its one-day oil change event, and the Mount Pleasant Women's Initiative granted $2,500 to each of the three partner organizations.

The funds and supplies were disbursed to this year’s Kay’s Way partners, The Foster Closet of Isabella County, Isabella County Child Advocacy Center and RISE Advocacy. These organizations will use the donations to support survivors of child abuse, domestic violence and sexual assault, and children in foster care.

Thank you to everyone who donated and to the Women’s Initiative Committee for organizing Kay's Way. Special appreciation goes to Krapohl Ford & Lincoln and Paula Arndt/Weichert Realtors Broadway Realty for their sponsorship.
