Beacon
The Beacon, located in Fort Scott, Kansas, has been a vital community resource for nearly forty years, originally founded by local churches to address the needs of residents in Bourbon County. It provides food, financial assistance, and referrals to other service organizations, largely supported through donations from the community.
Under the new administration of David Gillen, the Beacon is enhancing its operations, implementing updates to office equipment and improving client services. Staff members, including Assistant Administrator Patty Mowen, are committed to making a positive impact amidst challenges, particularly during the pandemic, while continuing to rely on the generous support of the local community.
