The BATC Foundation proudly opened the doors to its latest project this week with a moving ribbon cutting. The Foundation expanded and remodeled a group home in St. Michael for four young men with special needs.
Chief among the improvements was a new kitchen, where these residents like to gather at the new center island, cook together or enjoy a meal at the dining room table. The Foundation’s addition included a beautiful deck accessed from the kitchen and a new flooring throughout much of the home.
Parents of the residents, St. Michael Foundation volunteers and staff from the home joined BATC Foundation leadership, our build partner Minnesota Design & Construction (from St. Michael as well) and Senator Mary Kiffmeyer and Representative Eric Lucera at the ribbon cutting. We thank our builder and his many trade partners for their tremendous work.
We took an unsafe kitchen badly in need of repair and elevated this group home to greater access and efficiency – what a wonderful project.
