During the month of March, Integrated Architecture is participating in United Way’s Fill the Cart collection drives. These drives, taking place all across Kent County, bring together much-needed items that will ease the burden for children, families, seniors, and veterans who are struggling to meet their basic needs.

Did you know…

• * 51% of people in Grand Rapids and 39% of people in Kent County are struggling to meet their basic needs.
