Help preserve a piece of
Grassy Lake history
We’re raising funds to purchase and restore this historic 1905 building, and create a place that will serve our community for generations.

Every contribution, big or small, makes a lasting impact
Donating
Every contribution, big or small, makes a lasting impact — and goes straight into the purchase and the repairs.
Becoming a future tenant
An office, a suite, or a regular slot in the gathering room. Letters of intent help enormously with funding applications.
Volunteering
Painting, cleaning, moving furniture, putting the kettle on, minding children while other people work — all of it counts.
Offering skills or expertise
Trades, accounting, grant writing, legal advice, heritage building knowledge. If you know how to do something, we'd love to hear it.
Sharing the vision
Tell a neighbour. Share it in your group. Word of mouth in a town this size is worth more than any advert.
Providing letters of support
A short letter saying why this matters to you carries real weight with funders and with the county.
