DUBOIS CO., Ind. (WFIE) - There’s a big financial boost for a project
Officials say Greater Jasper Consolidated Schools donated the Fifth Street Elementary School property to SWICACC this February.
They say the west portion of the building will undergo a facilities renovation and then be re-purposed to a child advocacy center named Center on Fifth.
The $560,000 Community Foundation grant is towards a $1.1M fundraising goal needed for renovation costs.
