C & C GROUP

Beyond financial stability, work plays an important role in our sense of purpose and personal growth. That's why we're grateful to have the opportunity to hold a groundbreaking ceremony this morning at the Alphapointe Life Skills Campus. This new addition - approximately 18,000 square feet - will help us add new product lines while creating additional employment opportunities for people who are blind or visually impaired. "We were honored this morning to have Congressman Emanuel Cleaver II, of Missouri's Fifth District, attend Alphapointe's groundbreaking ceremony for our Life Skills Campus expansion," said Alphapointe President and CEO, Reinhard Mabry. "Congressman Cleaver presented Alphapointe with a Community Project Funding grant of $750,000, which is instrumental in the expansion and will aid us in continuing to employ and create jobs for individuals with vision loss." Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas also joined the celebration and announced the ReBuild KC grant from Kansas City, Missouri, in support of the project. We were also grateful to have members of the Marlborough Community Coalition, Kansas City Police Department, numerous business partners, board members, donors, volunteers, and staff in attendance. Thank you all for joining the celebration and supporting this expansion. [Image descriptions: 1.
