The Oakland Press (Aug. 17, 2010) – Through its Park West CARES philanthropy initiative, Park West Gallery donated more than 600 items of clothing and 11 Thomas Kinkade paintings to Pontiac-based Grace Centers of Hope.
Grace Centers of Hope has been providing its services to Southeast Michigan as a homeless shelter since 1942.
“We are very grateful for the wonderful generosity of Park West Gallery,” the Rev. Kent Clark, CEO of Grace Centers of Hope, said in a statement. “This donation is not the first time they have supported our organization. For the past several years, Park West Gallery has been a valued partner in our efforts to address homelessness in Michigan.”
The relationship between the two organizations began in 2008 when Park West founder and CEO Albert Scaglione and his wife, Mitsie, made a $25,000 donation to Grace Centers.
The Grace donation Friday was one stop during Park West’s Southeast Michigan donation blitz throughout August.
