DC Habitat awarded $11K for new Ramp Up Door County Initiative

The 100+ Women Who Care of Door County (100+WWC) giving circle met at the Kress Pavillion in October to recognize and award grants to local nonprofits. Three nonprofits - Peninsula Preschool, DC Habitat for Humanity, and the Washington Island Community Health Program, shared information on their organization.

Door County Habitat for Humanity will receive the Main Award of $11,250 for a new 'Rent A Ramp' program to keep people in need with mobility issues in their homes. Lori Allen, Executive Director, DC Habitat for Humanity affirmed: “Door County Habitat will purchase two portable accessibility ramps that can be used to assist individuals to Age in Place, allowing them to remain in their own homes.  We will partner with the Door County Aging Coalition to promote the Ramp Up Door County Initiative.”  DeAnn Umland, 100+WWC member and DC Habitat Board President, added “Being a part of 100+ Women allows me to connect with many like-minded people in the Door County non profit community.  This diverse group is focused on education while making a difference that we can all feel."

 

Artists Support Door County Habitat

Ardus DuBois  is a self taught artist as is her daughter, Sherry. They share the shop that is filled to the brim with their many original pieces re-purposed or upcycled for a second life. I asked Sherry where they discover the raw materials for their artistry and she answered simply “everywhere including the Habitat ReStore.”

“Supporting Habitat is a natural for us; since they are all about building homes for people and we’re all about decorating them.”

 Ardus and her daughter happily participate in the bird house and butterfly house projects and look forward contributing to the continuing success of Habitat for Humanity. Their shop is located at 59 S. Madison Street on the West side of Sturgeon Bay. We thank them for their support.
