Grape Creek Community Opportunities
Attention Grape Creek Community!
About a year ago we met with the Galilee Community Development Corporation and the USDA about opportunities for the Grape Creek Community. Today we were excited to be a part of a ground breaking ceremony hosted by the Galilee Community Development Center who will begin construction on their first home in their newest program geared toward building homes in rural areas. Their first home will be located in Grape Creek across from the High School and New Middle School.
Gallilee is a nonprofit organization that builds new homes and also provides light repairs for senior citizens and disabled homeowners. Families that are interested in purchasing this new home can be aided by the USDA. More information can be found at www.galileecdc.org. Please contact them about these amazing opportunities. They will be building other homes in Grape Creek in the near future!
Thank you for your continued support!
We are working hard for our amazing students and our outstanding community as well!
Sincerely,
Angie Smetana
