“The Ark program is a vital and life-saving resource for our community, working to reunite and strengthen families and give young people hope for their future. If it were not for the Ark, many of these kids would end up in danger or on the streets alone. It is the only shelter serving runaway, homeless and youth in crisis in nine counties of southwest Michigan. We are so grateful for the grant from Art Van which is helping us to build a new facility.”
