A New Chapter, A Stronger Future
We’ve been grateful to partner with the Greene County Housing Authority for many years. However, if you’ve visited us recently, you’ve seen that GCFP has outgrown our current space.
We are excited to share that we’ve secured a new, permanent home. A donor has already provided a large donation, accompanied by a low-interest, 5-year loan to satisfy the building purchase. Of course, we will need to update the building’s interior and surrounding grounds. To make this vision a reality, we need your continued support.
In addition to this exciting step forward, the heavy storms caused a tree to total our small van. We quickly rebounded by securing a younger, slightly larger, lower-mileage used van; however, $10,000 was not covered by insurance, an unexpected cost alongside our building project.
Your financial gift today will help us open doors to greater impact, deeper connections, and lasting change. Your support is vital to our mission.
