Kalamazoo, Regional and National Highlights

    Local non-profit organization Take Life By The Page is taking donations of reading and writing materials such as books, notebooks, and journals for children and adults living in homeless shelters throughout Kalamazoo County.
  • Blog 08/31/10 - Kalamazoo's Gryphon Place turns 40: Agency known for suicide prevention offers much more
    For people in poverty, there is no "map" or "guide" of how reach or access services. Many people rely on service referral organizations such as Gryphon Place to direct them to the correct organizations.
  • Blog 08/30/10 - Study shows every 10 public transit jobs creates six more jobs in Michigan economy
