Y15K Fund Drive Distributes Final Gifts
One group benefitting from our members' generosity was the residents of Cobblestone Place, which provides affordable subsidized housing for people with low income. In addition to purchasing outdoor seating and a large dining table for residents to share community meals, PACG raised enough to give a $120 HyVee gift card to each of the 23 households at Cobblestone Place. PACG decided to gift the cards at this time, when need is greatest. We also had enough funds to purchase 5 rolls of bus tokens, which will be distributed by the property manager to residents in need of such.
Cobblestone Place also offers extremely affordable office space to various non-profits, including Progressive Action for the Common Good. Once the pandemic subsides, we will again hold meetings in their public meeting room.
Other organizations that benefitted from our Y15K drive: Catalyst Kitchen, Heart of Hope, and QC Alliance for Immigrants and Refugees. Remind yourself of this good work by rereading our Blog post here.
PACG is proud that our members rallied and donated to support the common good.
