About us

Ministry with Community was founded in 1978 by a small group of people led by Dorothy Markusse at North Presbyterian Church in Kalamazoo, Michigan. This group saw a need to provide basic services to adults with no other place to turn. In 2016, after a successful Capital Campaign, MwC moved into a new building at 500 North Edwards Street. Currently, between 250 to 500 meals are served daily. Both breakfast and lunch are served 365 days/year.
