She wished to support activities, facilities and programs in the Elk Rapids area so that others may enjoy the area as much as she did. Grants awards may support projects that enhance the beauty of the Elk Rapids community, such as: landscaping improvements for parks and open spaces; transportation to healthcare for the area residents; or other programs and services that provide public benefit.
