GUILFORD Friends of Community Fitness has received a $4,200 grant from the Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund to support its new STEM & sensory education room for children.

Britney Gallagher, executive director of Community Fitness, said the funds will be used to furnish the room with toys and supplies that stimulate childrens minds and creativity. The new room will open Jan. 2, 2024 starting with a morning program from 8-10 a.m. Space will be limited and reservations are required. Call 207-876-4813 now to reserve your weekdays in the new year.

This new room will allow parents, grandparents and caretakers to bring children into a place where they know they will be educationally enriched while the adults use the facility or take a class for their own mental and physical health, Gallagher said.

In both rural and urban settings, the Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund supports hundreds of important organizations and programs in the communities where they operate with funding, time, expertise, and resources. Weyerhaeuser made its first charitable donation in 1903 and has provided more than $260 million in grants through its formal giving program, which was established in 1948.
