Soon, we will be replacing windows, doors, siding, and patios on our staff apartments.
Plans to Prosper Matching Grant
We are delighted to announce that we are working toward a new outdoor courtyard on The Leaves' property between our staff housing buildings. We hope to name this courtyard the Brother Birds Garden in the spirit of harmonious fellowship.
Thanks to a very generous donor, we have a Matching Grant for up to $150,000.
We look forward to this as a space for families, neighbors, and friends to connect as a community in this beautiful, functional garden.
