The GHACF is Moving to 6 Sherman Avenue
April | GHACF announces move to 6 Sherman.
August | GHACF closes on building at 6 Sherman.
In April, we announced plans to move from our current location at 1 South Harbor Drive to a larger office space at 6 Sherman Avenue, the former City of Grand Haven Water Filtration and Distribution Facility.
The building at 6 Sherman Ave will provide work and meeting space for our entire GHACF staff with the ability to accommodate future growth. In addition, the space will be used to hold meetings with partners and fund holders and host board meetings, events, and trainings. Future plans include an incubator space dedicated to our growing for-impact partners in addition to a garden/patio.
We continue to actively work on the details for the move to 6 Sherman, which is planned for later this year. Check back here for the latest updates.
