Update on the Shea House: We are on our last phase for the Shea House, which includes new plumbing and sheet-rock. The house has most recently been painted (see Local Events Rotation). We have won the Staunton City Grant, amounting to $10,000, and the Community Foundation Grant, amounting to $2,500! Thank you to everybody in SACAARS who put in the work and congratulations! We have also been awarded a grant of $10,000 for the Shea House, committed by the Chris and Becky Earhart Fund at the Community Foundation of the Central Blue Ridge. Thank you!
