The Giving Tree

We are excited to share that our fundraising campaign is underway! The estimated cost of this project is $2,165,750 for construction plus fit out of the space. We are seeking $600,000 in funds to be added to the $1,561,000 the Foundation was awarded in December 2022. We hope to raise $200,000 from private donors and private foundation grants; $200,000 from corporate donations and sponsorships; and $200,000 from public donation and fundraising events. All raised funds for the YES Project will be held in a separate bank account to be only used for the construction cost short falls and fit out. Please consider making a donation or a donation pledge for 2024 by completing a Donation/Pledge form available at the Town Office.
