Fund Raising Update

The results of the recent drive to match an anonymous $50K pledge are as follows:  The Valley Giving Guide portion of the drive garnered $115,867 including the $50K pledge.  Additional funds raised through the Gem website, including the Hodaka coin drive bring the grand total of every donation to just under $136K.

THANK YOU to all donors.  These resources will be invested in the project and the local economy over the next few months.
 
 
PAVER PRICE CHANGE.  Due to the dramatic rise in the cost of shipping materials and the cost of labor, the cost of paver sponsorship will increase by $10 to $135.00 effective immediately.  We are sorry to impose this additional cost.
