Support Our Mission.
Enriching Lives. Creating Community.
The West Central Community Center serves as a beacon of hope for those who seek the life-enriching services we are privileged to provide. Our doors are open to anyone in need of assistance, even if the need is a reprieve from the summer heat or the winter cold. We are able to serve this community because of the generosity of many funding partners, including numerous individual donors. However, the need for funding is ongoing and we invite you to invest in the health of our community by investing in our Center.

Harris was a long-time resident of Kennewick, Washington, where he owned the popular tavern Billy's Bullpen for many years.
