One would think with a pandemic, a derecho, and the Wieting being closed since March of 2020, there would be nothing to report. Much has been going on behind the scenes.
Our biggest challenge was how to pay our ongoing expenses such as rent, utilities, insurance, fire alarm contract, interest on the loan, etc. with no income. Many community members made us aware of funding opportunities for non-profit organizations to help us survive. Our treasurer, Michelle Evans, took it upon herself to follow up on every lead and complete the necessary paperwork. Words can’t express our appreciation for her hard work on our behalf! The Wieting was awarded seven new grants.
