COMBINING COMPASSION AND ART

BE THE CHANGE 
The art symbolizes that without change a seed would not become a flower,
An acorn would not become a tree.
Change is inevitable.  It is what we do with it that makes the difference.
BE The Change is a touring exhibit by Artists Helping the Homeless to help those less fortunate,
that is moving through Kansas City to spread this message.
Change will happen with or without us. 
By being part of the change, by taking simple acts,
that change will do better for ourselves and others.

For two weeks in August the Great Mall of the Great Plains will host a location for a drop-off point for the Harvesters drive.  During the month of August the Great Mall will also be a site to view the artwork from Artists Helping The Homeless.  This consists of 4 indoor flower sculptures made with metal and lucite and BE THE CHANGE sculpture will be in front of the fashion entrance of the Mall.  We are planning to have music and fun for the two weekends.

The Harvester's food drive will be August 8th - 23rd.
All stores in the Great Mall and
some of the restaurants on the outer roads are participating.
Sponsors for the combined event are the Great Mall, Klover Architects and Saint Luke's.
We will be adding to our sponsor list.
There will be fun and music for the two weekends.

Harvesters
Harvesters is a community outreach food drive to help feed as many hungry mouths as possible.  A sponsor provides a drop off point for canned goods and other products that are given from the community. As Fall approaches, this becomes the busiest time to prepare for the cold/holiday season.  Over 60,000 people use Harvesters' network as a provided source in the Kansas City area alone.

I am so impress with the efforts the Great Mall Management as well as the merchants who participate in this community effort to help raise food for Harvesters and awareness of the homelessness issue.  We as a community members must show our support and visit Great Mall and bring can and box food to their event.  Thanks. 

Thank you very much for the support of the Great Mall

On August 4th we spend 12 hours installing the Be The Change sculpture and the flower sculptures at the Great Mall.  We want to thank Great Mall for their wonderful support to help us spread awareness of our new food program beginning October 8.
The mall and their workers have work tirelessly to help us and the community as well as collecting food for Harvesters.  I applauded their efforts and their commitment to the community.

The October 8 food program is design to serve the low income as well as the homeless at Center of Grace.  It is plan to be on every Thursday evening.  It is a program inspired by Mr. Darrell Cantrell to have a sit down dinner for the patron while the volunteers serve them.  The goal is to enhance communication and provide dignity.  This gives us a chance to get to know our patrons and become friends.  We will be looking for donation support for the food program as well as volunteers to serve.  Please call or e-mail us for more information.
