Project Update July 19, 2023

THE NEW GVCO COMMUNITY CENTER

HAS ITS GARAGE DOOR!

This week, the contractors installed the large garage door at the far end of the facility. This feature will lead to greater versatility at the complex.

We imagine the garage door being open during "good" weather for larger events utilizing both indoor and outdoor space. Think booster club functions, community gatherings/celebrations or fundraising events. In addition, this is envisioned to be ideal for things like our youth summer camps that were held for many years at our old GVBL Center.

Financing the new

GVCO Community Center

It's time for everyone in our Great Valley community to GIVE BACK. The community's support over the past six years has been tremendous [Donor List]. Let's finish what we started, paying off the debt and moving forward with the next phase of the project. To do this, the support must continue and be more broad based.

We are asking for help from the entire Great Valley private, public and business community.

Do You Match?

Much of the success of any capital campaign comes from Employer Matching Gift Programs. Most corporations have a a matching gift program which enables you to have twice the impact with your contribution.

To date, we have received over $130,000 in matching gifts towards our new GVCO Community Center.

For this first phase of the project, if we could simply raise that same level of employer matching gifts, it would allow us to nearly pay for the entire plumbing in the building or all of the windows and doors.

We have compiled a list of corporations that historically have had Matching Gift Programs. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to execdirector@gvco.org and we will be glad to assist you.

The Future of GVCO

We are on our way...

to our ultimate goal of a world-class community resource that delivers a broad range of sports, educational, arts, recreational and senior programs that address key community needs.
