Residents and colleagues at Integrace Bayleigh Chase, a forward-thinking life plan community based in Easton, recently participated in an effort to help with the Hurricane Harvey recovery effort in Houston, Texas. Working with non-profit organization 50K Souls, Bayleigh Chase representatives collected blankets, diapers, pillows, sheets, clothes, toiletries and other items that will be sent to families in Texas who were affected by the devastating floods.
“When we heard about this opportunity with 50K Souls, our team at Bayleigh Chase quickly began gathering items to lend our support to their effort,” said Sherri Sump Brown, Director of Sales & Marketing, Integrace Bayleigh Chase.
50K Souls networks with churches and other faith-based organizations to promote change and love in communities across the country. The non-profit is currently involved in projects in 13 states. As part of its mission, 50K Souls members visit families door-to-door to offer nutritional food as well as spiritual support.
“One of the states we are currently active in is Texas, which allowed us to make the connection and go directly to the problem,” Mandel Copeland, a member of 50K Souls, said of the organization’s campaign to help deliver needed items to Hurricane Harvey victims.
Located on a 35-acre campus in historic Easton, Bayleigh Chase is a not-for-profit life plan community that affords residents a lifestyle of flexibility and choice to live life on their own terms.
