Any homeowner knows the costs associated with improvements, maintenance, and repair of a home, and the age of the Women’s Club home, combined with the heavy and varied use of the building, magnifies these costs.  We have been extremely fortunate to have a great grant-writing team — Kathy Oliver and Linda Ogilvie. They have been able to successfully apply for several grants for the Club that have helped to pay for doors, floors, upgrades, and appliances.  Thanks very much for your work on grants – these funds are a wonderful supplement to our budget.
