Captain Sylvia Trundle was seeking ways for the police department to partner with OPEN M after having worked as a patrol officer in the Summit Lake neighborhood. She began using OPEN M as a resource in her job, but that became just the beginning of her involvement and support. She began supporting OPEN M with her time and resources, and she invited two very special ladies in her life to join her – her mother, Kay Hine, and her grandmother, Sylvia Phillips.

“We need our own building,” he told the board. “Our students need a place to call their own.”

And now that vision is becoming a reality.

Many probably wouldn’t know where to start, or how to find food, shelter, etc.
