The Alden Volunteers organization was generously deeded the 9087 Helena Road property (formerly known as Mrs. Smith’s Posey Patch, adjacent to the US Post Office). The Smith family entrusted the Alden Volunteers to transform the area into an aesthetic, cultural, social and educational space to serve the community. The new space is named the Village Center.
Phase 1 of the Village Center project has begun! The area has been excavated and 2022 plans include installation of a well, electricity, seeding and an irrigation system. Future fundraising dollars will be allocated to the building of a 36’x24′ structure that will have an entertainment stage and an enclosed, secure storage space to store all of AV’s tools, holiday decor and miscellaneous equipment. Finally, professional landscaping will complete the project.
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of cash donations allocated to the Village Center project, and 100% of profit from our brick fundraiser will go towards funding the project.
