We continue to support local organizations for worthwhile projects through grant funds made available annually. We are interested in supporting affordable housing within the City of Greenwood. We also support a park project that is a lasting legacy for the Japanese-Canadian families interned in Greenwood during WWII and those families that chose to stay in Greenwood after the war.
