Community Grants Awarded at VHCA 2016 Annual General Meeting

The annual general meeting of the Virginia-Highland Civic Association was held September 22 at Inman Middle School. As always, the Spark Choir – led by Music Director Brianne Turgeon – warmed our hearts with a few songs to kick off the meeting.

Along with electing a new slate of board members, VHCA awarded $25,525 in grants to local schools and non-profits who serve our Virginia-Highland residents. Included in our grant awards was Open Door Community who will be leaving Virginia-Highland after 35 years of service to the homeless community in our area. They will be missed.
