We are proud to volunteer our services for the amazing organization, Synergy!
We hold an annual employee meeting on the last Friday of March every year.
We get together to review company policies and discuss strategies for success for the upcoming season.
After the meeting concluded, we took the team to two different Synergy properties to complete a Spring Clean-Up. Dennis Meier, the co-executive director, said, “We are so appreciative and will enjoy the beautiful scenery. Thank you!"
By the Blade has deep roots within the community and is proud to be able to give back. Below is a little information about Synergy if you are unfamiliar with their organization.
Envisioning a World Free of Family Violence, Abuse, and Neglect
Synergy Services, Inc. began in 1970 as Synergy House, the only shelter for runaway and homeless youth in western Missouri. Through the years, a series of both serendipitous and strategic mergers expanded the organization’s reach to include young children and women victimized by abuse.
Today, Synergy provides a full continuum of care to assist individuals and families with immediate respite from violence and services that empower clients to find and choose good options for future safety and success. In addition to our work to treat the effects of violence, we provide supportive services to families in crisis in an effort to prevent violence. Additionally, we focus on community education and social change in an effort to build a safer and more humane society.
Our fully integrated programs include crisis hotlines, emergency shelters, transitional housing, therapeutic services, advocacy, mentoring, and violence prevention programs throughout Greater Kansas City.
Synergy’s clients represent a broad cross-section of the population spanning gender, age, race, and six county lines in Kansas and Missouri. Most often, clients have annual family incomes of less than $25,000, making it difficult to access the variety of services they need through traditional means. We provide these services, which are so critical to the well-being of the family and community, to anyone that needs them regardless of the ability to pay.
Drainage Solutions & Top Surface Treatments Help to Eradicate Pests
A wet spring combined with rising temperatures creates a rich environment for outdoor pests. Routine application of our top surface treatment at optimal times can significantly reduce your family’s exposure to fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, and other pests.
Drainage improvements can also help to eliminate mosquito breeding areas by tackling the source of the problem – standing water. Sources of standing water can include poor yard layout, soil depressions, tree stumps, and excessive lawn debris.
Aquascapes and water features such as fountains, birdbaths, ornamental and swimming pools, and spas offer peaceful, relaxing additions to your outdoor living oasis without introducing risk. The key is to properly clean, treat, maintain and aerate those features.
If drainage issues and outdoor pests are of concern to you, please contact us today for a consultation.
