fellowship will all be part of the fun!
Over 200 generous families and

project. Construction is underway, and
we are VERY excited about how great

project also includes a community meet-
ing space dedicated to the memory of
the late Maryann Mahaffey. Neighbor-
hood groups will soon have a convenient
and comfortable location to hold their
meetings and workshops.
Many thanks go out to all the do-
nors and volunteers helping GRDC
establish a presence on Grand River. We
hope to see you on May 22 – come see Construction in progress at the new GRDC office building
