Dear Friends,
As we enter another Give Grandly season, I am very grateful for our community of nonprofits. Grant County’s distinction as the New Mexico county with the highest number of nonprofits is a testament to our creative, community minded, positive change oriented, corner of the world.
During this time of giving in our community, please consider supporting the Silver City MainStreet Project. Always busy, we are preparing for a Great Blocks infrastructure project and making infrastructure improvements at the Silco Theater. We are continuing to offer new programming at the Silco, managing the Visitor Center, and promoting new and existing downtown businesses. It is thanks to the support of community members like you that we are able to do this work!
