Kalamazoo, MI; Grand Rapids, MI; Orlando, FL—W. Soule & Company is proud to announce its participation in Project Home Again, a national program that helps locate missing, kidnapped, and runaway children. Project Home Again is the community outreach program sponsored by the Mechanical Service Contractors of America (MSCA), of which W. Soule & Company is a member, in conjunction with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

According to NCMEC, approximately 800,000 children disappear each year as a result of family abductions, kidnappings, and running away. This means that over 2,100 children—or 90 an hour—disappear each day. Through Project Home Again, W. Soule & Company can assist in efforts to find missing children and help bring them safely home.

W. Soule & Company will be displaying posters of missing children from the local area on their service vehicles. Since these service vehicles travel extensively around the community on a daily basis, it is hoped that many people will see the poster and the missing child will be recognized, found and returned to his/her family. Each poster includes a photo of the child at the time he or she was first reported missing, biographical information, and phone numbers to call if the child has been seen or if anyone has information.

Tim Britt, Service Manager of W. Soule & Company, states “We are proud to be participating in this extremely worthwhile program and urge everyone in the community to look for the posters on our vehicles and to keep an eye out for these children.”

“MSCA is proud to have its contractor members involved in their local communities and with such a worthwhile cause,” said MSCA Executive Director, Barbara Dolim. “Poster programs have proven to be extremely effective in locating missing children and it is hoped that Project Home Again will significantly contribute to this success rate.”
