WYCE's Community Closeup (*conversations concerning issues of importance in West Michigan)

On this episode, host Phil Tower welcomes Daryl Reece, Executive Director and co-founder of the Pieces of Reeces Foundation.

The Pieces of Reeces Foundation will once again bring the community together on Saturday, August 9, from 1-8 pm, for their third annual Piecing Together Unity Festival at Rosa Parks Circle.

The festival is hosted by the Pieces of Reece's Foundation.

The foundation provides essential resources such as food, clothing, and shelter to ensure that every child's basic needs are met, allowing them to focus on their education and personal growth.

Executive Director Daryl Reece began the foundation with his wife, Debra, in 2019.

Daryl credits his time at the Boys and Girls Clubs in Benton Harbor and Kalamazoo as being strong positive influences on his life, and he is very involved with the organization today, including the Boys and Girls Club of Grand Rapids.
