Community Grant from GE

We are very grateful to our neighbor, The General Electric Engine Testing Facility, for awarding us a $1500 Community Grant this year.

We applied for this grant earlier in the year to support a scholarship for someone from Peebles to come to the October session of our new Hope Springs Women's Leadership Collaborative. We found out in September that we had received this grant.

Just before Thanksgiving, Sam Young and Aaron Irwin from the Peebles Test Site delivered the scholarship check and toured our facility. They appreciated seeing our land and buildings and hearing the story of Hope Springs. Aaron and Sam both said they enjoyed their visit and will tell people about us

Thanks again Sam, Aaron and all at GE who made this grant to Hope Springs possible. We look forward to continuing to build a good relationship with our business neighbor and to learning from each other how to reduce our impact on the environment.

Peace,

Suzanne
