Review for First Glance Student Center, Inc., Akron, OH, USA
Prayers answered! My mother-in- law, Grandma Benn, lived in Kenmore for 50 years and always envisioned a "center" for the youth. She was very troubled that they had a senior center but nothing for her "Kenmore Kids." It time, her prayers were answered through the vision of Noelle Beck. Noelle and her husband Tim had the heart, faith and conviction that God would do an amazing work in Kenmore. Their vision and passion has ignited an entire community. Where there seemed to be no hope for the young people, they have been given hope as volunteers have joined this effort by loving the "Kenmore Kids."
