The Friends of the Mindemoya Old School has received a sizeable donation to revitalize the building as a viable community asset.
President Jan McQuay says the organization has received a $10,000 grant from Trillium Mutual Insurance – Roots Community Fund.
She says once they signed a long-term lease, the grant was approved and will help transform the century-old building into a senior centre, as well as a place for rural artists and artisans to host a year-round marketplace and access studio space.
