P.E.A.C.E. stands for: Partnership in Economic Alliance for Community Empowerment. P.E.A.C.E is a 501(c)(3) organization that exists to lift the quality of life for children, adults, and seniors in Ypsilanti, Michigan – particularly residents in the West Willow community. P.E.A.C.E. exists to provide charitable services through education, empowerment, and economics.Years before the existence of P.E.A.C.E., the Willow Run bomber plant was in Ypsilanti Township directly across from West Willow where P.E.A.C.E.’s soon-to-be-built community center will be constructed. The plant was developed by Henry Ford during World War II to build the B-24 Liberator military aircraft. Through Ford’s mass production principles and dedicated effort, the plant produced nearly half of all B-24s for the war, helping to secure victory for the Allies and bring peace to the world. In a reminiscent way, P.E.A.C.E. now seeks to bring holistic “peace” back to Willow Run by combining principle, community value, and effort together.
