🌟SPOTLIGHT MOMENT🌟

Cassie Guthrie, Program Manager and her team shares their gratitude for the community's support and dedication coming out to beautify Freedom House Kent and Miller Community House.

"This past Saturday, May 16th, Freedom House and Miller Community House came together for an amazing Community Clean Up Day! We want to give a huge thank you to the Lions Club for all of their hard work, especially the power washing and helping make our shelters shine. Thank you to our entire maintenance team for the heavy lifting, hauling mulch, and tackling the big projects that helped make such a difference. We were thankful to have our Executive Director and CEO of Axess Family Services Mark Frisone join us for our community clean Up Day! Your support , leadership, and willingness to work alongside staff, residents and volunteers truly means so much to our shelter and community.

We are also incredibly grateful to the volunteers, residents, and staff who gave up part of their Saturday to come together and help clean, organize, and beautify our shelters. Your teamwork, kindness, and dedication truly show what the community is all about.

It means so much to see people come together to support Freedom House and Miller Community House. Because of all of you, our shelters feel more welcoming, cared for, and full of pride. We appreciate every single person who helped make the day such a success! ❤️--- Cassie Guthrie
