A Look at What We've Accomplished: KeyBank Foundation Grant
We often share the good news of receiving grants and what they will be used for, but this time around we’re sharing work that has been accomplished. We’re taking a look at the KeyBank Foundation Grant, and how it has allowed us to implement sensory and motor activities, provide a place for children to play outside, and train staff. And, there’s still more to come!
