Inspiring Match Challenge To Help Displaced Griggs Farm Residents

Friends and Neighbors: we noted in our previous communication regarding the tragic fire at Griggs Farm that our community has a BIG heart - and it sure does! Many thanks to all who have given!

In addition to the many gifts to Princeton Community Housing’s Griggs Farm Fire Relief Fund and other assistance efforts, generous donors have stepped up to offer a dollar-for-dollar match for any giving to the Princeton Community Housing’s Griggs Farm Fire Relief Fund over the next three weeks, up to $36,000.

On behalf of the displaced Griggs Farm residents, the Trustees and Staff of Princeton Community Housing are tremendously grateful for this truly wonderful gesture of support.

With your help, it is one that will increase our limited emergency resources to allow us to extend the term of emergency housing and to provide other essential needs for our displaced Griggs Farm residents until each resident can secure longer term temporary housing and bring stability to their household. It is anticipated that the reconstruction of the damaged Griggs Farm building will take at least several months.

We are appealing to the generous and compassionate spirit of our community to rise up to this charitable challenge and help us multiply the help we can offer the people affected by the Griggs Farm fire.

Please donate today! Your contributions are tax-deductible, as PCH is a 501(c)(3) organization. Please show our generous benefactors and the displaced Griggs Farm residents the kindness of our community in taking care of its own.
