Safe Homes, warm Hearts, Brighter Tomorrows!

Folks… we’ve done it… we have a winter plan for the homeless granny’s!

I’d like to announce a collaboration with Greenwood Manor inn in Harrison Maine-
The Cozy Granny Program!!!

They’ve been gracious enough to allow us to rent 7 rooms this Nov1- May 1! These rooms will allow us a spot to house some of these homeless senior woman this winter!

Want to help? Sponsor a Granny!

For $800 a month each room has a private bathroom, cleaning service, WiFi, linens, and a community fridge!

For $300 more each woman will have a coffee and tea bar with breakfast pastries and three home cooked dinners a week! And all holiday meals!

For $1100 a month we can house and feed a homeless senior!

This opportunity is only possible because of the incredible family running @The greenwood manor inn has a heart of gold!

If we can sponsor each granny’s stay for the winter ( or at least subsidize the cost quite a bit) that would allow them 6 months to save, rest, look for housing, get signed up with resources, and get on their feet!

We have a long term granny housing plan… but it will take time and money. This Cozy Grabby program will allow us the winter to work out the details while knowing these woman are safe.

Pay it Forward in Our Lakes Region

One of the things that makes our community so special is how we support one another.

Some local businesses are thriving, while others may be going through a slower season. Sometimes, a small gesture can make a big difference.

If your business is doing well, consider “paying it forward” by sponsoring a local business in the Lakes Region Area Guide.

For $300, they’ll receive a full year of visibility through the Guide, our newsletter, and local Facebook groups—helping them get seen and supported within the community.

No pressure at all—just an idea rooted in community.

If you’d like to help another local business, reach out to Sue anytime at lakesregionmarketing@gmail.com.

Because when we support local businesses, we all grow stronger together.
