Green Gables Awarded $10,000 Grant
Green Gables is the grateful recipient of a $10,000 operating Support Grant provided by the generosity of the Barbara Wells Family Foundation and Community Foundation for Brevard. This award will cover the cost of water and sewer impact fees for Green Gables and connection for water service and plumbing for our outside operation. City water access will be such a welcome commodity for hygiene for volunteers and visitors, in cleaning the building, for future construction crews, and for watering our gardens.
“Foundations such as the Community Foundation for Brevard and philanthropy such as the Barbara Wells Family Foundation are the catalysts that keep historic preservation in our communities and so many smaller nonprofits operational” said Green Gables Board Member, Sue Fallon.
