For several years, Kevco’s focus was working with
LifeStream Behavioral Center, a local non-profit organization dedicated to supporting those with substance abuse, behavioral and mental health conditions. This was a very important and personal commitment for Joe Ziler, the Ziler Family and Kevco. Their
ongoing dedication to raising awareness about mental health conditions is inspired by the memory of Joe’s younger brother, Mike, who committed suicide, leaving behind his extraordinary daughter (Joe’s niece), Kara Jo.
Over several years, dozens of Kevco partners, vendors, customers and friends joined in our effort and helped raise more than $200,000* for LSBC, with a specific focus on raising awareness and the prevention of suicide.
What drives him and what does he hope others will do to help make a difference for those with mental health and substance abuse issues? We invite you to watch.
