Grant Providers
A Ten-Year Cummings Foundation Grant
The Winchester Seniors Association (WSA) is delighted to announce that we were one of only forty organizations awarded a ten-year grant from the Cummings Foundation. The grant allows the WSA to continue offering evening and weekend programs, which is especially important for our working seniors.
We ask all patrons to:
-
Thank the Cummings Foundation for their generous support!
-
Log in to see what’s happening on Tuesday evening at the Jenks.
-
Invite your friends to join you.
-
Let us know if there are speakers or topics that you would like to hear about.
-
And spread the word to organizations that could benefit from use of the Jenks Center.
Please send any suggestions to: Maria Rutnam, WSA Program Manager mrutnam@jenkscenter.org
