SOUTH HUTCHINSON, Kan. – Plans are moving forward for Interfaith Housing and Community Services’ Veteran Housing Project in South Hutchinson, thanks in part to a recent $20,000 donation from Cargill and the Central Kansas Veteran Community Partnership (CKVCP).
A formal check presentation was made on June 14th at the proposed site, 402 S Elm St. in South Hutchinson. The property was acquired from Steve Schowalter.
The donation will help Interfaith to pay for pre-development costs for what will be known as Patriot Place. The housing project will feature 20 one-bedroom units surrounding a 1000-square-foot community room.
Interfaith Housing and Community Services, developed in 1989, seeks to alleviate poverty and build community through housing assistance, financial education and individual empowerment. As a non-profit, much of what the organization is able to accomplish is dependent on donations and community volunteers.
