The city of Douglas launched a Patronicity crowdfunding campaign to raise $25,000 to renovate a pair of city parks.
The Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) and the city of Douglas said the Patronicity campaign launched Monday has a goal to raise $25,000 by June 30 for the Douglas Park Project, and if it meets the goal, the project will win a matching grant with funds from the MEDC’s Public Spaces Community Places program.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the project raised $928.
“Activating underused spaces and creating more vibrant and inclusive public places is what our program is all about,” said Michele Wildman senior vice president of community development for the MEDC. “We are pleased to support and provide resources for the Douglas Park Project through our Public Spaces Community Places program.”
