TYLER — Mission Tyler, a collaborative effort to help local residents and others in various ways, is continuing its work in tornado-ravaged Joplin, Missouri. On KTBB “Staff Meeting,” Executive Director Travis White says a key focus of the group is relationship-building. According to White, it’s important to find out what the top priorities are for the people who need assistance. White says, “We like to go in to an area and work with the local church and just say look here we are here’s our resources, people and financially, we want to serve; where are the needs?” White tells us a recent youth car wash raised $6,100 — “and that was all funds that we were able to take to Joplin and ask the question of people in the neighborhood, what do you need most?”<\/p>\n
White says volunteers are always needed. Another Joplin trip is set for July 20. You can go to http:\/\/www.oneloverevolution.com<\/a> to learn more about Mission Tyler and its work.
