The Gladstone Senior Citizen Center Non-Profit Organization was awarded a $5,000.00 grant from the Community Foundation for Delta County.  The grant was given to the Gladstone Senior Citizen Non-Profit Organization to assist with the $10,832.00 to replace the rooftop furnace air exchange, which had failed in March and needed to be replaced quickly.

The GSCNP Corporation’s mission for over forty years has been to maintain the Gladstone Senior Center building in order to provide services and activities for its local and surrounding senior citizens.

It does so through its annual membership dues of $10 per year, fundraising and donations. COVID-19 has cancelled fundraisers held at the center since March 2020, which affected it net profits.

The Community Foundation for Delta County recognized the importance of the Center in the community that houses the CAA meals-on-wheels program for upwards of 300 meals per day and also provides a safe, social environment for senior services and activities.

If you’d like to learn more about how you can help make a difference in our community, please contact the community foundation by calling 906-786-6654 or emailing office@cfup.org

The Community Foundation for Delta County is a 501 (c) (3) and proud to be certified with National Standards

For good. For ever.
