Grant elder care facility receives assistance from Burwell to start fundraising

Things have been moving along for Our GoldenHours LLC, which is seeking to build the elder care facility that will be called Western Sky Community Care Center in Grant, Nebraska.

Besides the survey completion of the ground that the facility will be located on, the organization has also just secured a relationship with the  Burwell Community Memorial Health Center, which will allow the group to start fundraising. 

The group also recently unveiled their logo, which was designed by Renae Bottom

Survey is complete

With the survey being completed on the Fredrick Ground, the group is a step closer to officially closing on the property with Perkins County Health Services. 

On Tuesday, Aug. 23, the PCHS Board of Directors unanimously voted to allow Western Sky CCC to work toward the purchasing of approximately nine acres of PCHS’s Frederick Ground for $1.

Western Sky develops partnership with Burwell

Besides the survey, another giant step forward for the Western Sky CCC is the development of a relationship between Burwell Community Memorial Health Center that will allow Western Sky CCC to use Burwell’s nonprofit status to start fundraising. 

“The board of directors at the Burwell Community Memorial Health Center met last week and approved the Fiscal Sponsorship Agreement with Western Sky CCC,” Bottom said. “This legal agreement gives Western Sky CCC  a 501(c)(3) status.”

Western Sky CCC is now in the planning phase of another town hall meeting, which will include the kickoff of its fundraising, Bottom said. A formal fundraising committee has been implemented for the task and is moving ahead now, Bottom said. 

The center will hold its second town hall meeting on Monday, Oct. 17, at 6:30 p.m. This meeting will be held at the Perkins County Fairgrounds in Grant.

Tim Groshans will be on hand for the meeting, and a slideshow presentation will be given on the current status of the facility. Also to be discussed are fundraising goals for the center and much more, according to Bottom. All are encouraged to come.

“Our goal with the meeting will be to inform the public on the plan forward, to announce our fundraising goal and to engage public help and support,” Bottom said. “This is going to take all of us because we are trying to accomplish a difficult task in difficult times.”
