Tonight’s non-profit partner
The Grace Center
In the spirit of giving back to the community, each concert is partnered with a Cape Ann non-profit organization. The public is invited to make a free-will donation.
In the winter of 2009, the Cape Ann Clergy Association recognized an increasing number of requests for help from low-income and homeless adults. A Needs Assessment Study identified a number of pressing needs including the absence of a safe day space for the homeless in Gloucester. On December 22, 2011, the Grace Center, Inc. opened as a day resource center with professional staff and volunteers. To date we have served over 700 individuals.
