About Us
Greenway Area Community Fund
An Advisory Committee, made up of local volunteer residents with strong ties to the Greenway Area we love, is working hard to raise money and will ultimately be responsible for awarding grants to worthy recipients (non-profit groups) in our local communities. There are ten cities and townships that make up the Greenway Area, and each of these entities may have more than one representative on the Advisory Committee; however, each community or township will only have one vote when we begin granting from our fund.
