The Giving Grounds Project Inc. was created with a simple belief: everyone deserves to feel safe, cared for, and proud of the place they call home.

We are a nonprofit organization serving Calhoun County, Michigan, with a mission to provide FREE lawn care and snow removal services to seniors, individuals with disabilities, and low-income individuals and families who are unable to afford or physically perform these essential property-maintenance tasks.

For many people, mowing a lawn or clearing a driveway is simply another weekend chore. But for an elderly neighbor, a person living with a disability, or a family struggling financially, these jobs can become overwhelming—or even dangerous.

That's where The Giving Grounds Project wants to help.

Our volunteers will step in to mow lawns, maintain outdoor areas, and clear snow and ice so that the people we serve can remain safely and comfortably in their homes—at absolutely no cost to them.

We Need Help Getting Started

The Giving Grounds Project is still in its startup phase, and we have reached a point where we need the support of our community to get our crews into the field.

Funds raised through this campaign will help cover critical startup expenses, including:

$275 IRS Form 1023-EZ filing fee for our federal 501(c)(3) application
Liability and other necessary insurance coverage
Zero-turn, riding, and push lawn mowers
Snow blowers and snow-removal equipment
Trimmers, blowers, hand tools, and other lawn-care equipment
Safety equipment and protective gear for volunteers
Fuel and equipment maintenance
Other essential operating expenses needed to begin serving our neighbors

Every Donation Matters

You don't have to make a large donation to make a difference.

A $10 or $20 contribution can help put fuel in a mower.

A $50 contribution can help purchase safety equipment or supplies.

A larger contribution can help us purchase the equipment and insurance necessary to put volunteer crews into the community.

And if you're unable to donate financially, sharing this campaign can be just as valuable. Every share helps introduce The Giving Grounds Project to another person, business, organization, or potential volunteer who may want to help.

Our goal isn't simply to mow lawns or shovel snow.

It's to help our neighbors.

It's helping an elderly homeowner remain safely in the home they love.

It's helping someone with a disability who physically cannot maintain their property.

It's helping a struggling family who has to choose between paying bills and paying someone to mow their lawn.

It's showing people that their community hasn't forgotten about them.

Neighbors Helping Neighbors.

That's what The Giving Grounds Project is all about.

Please consider donating, sharing our campaign, or simply telling someone about our mission.

Together, we can turn The Giving Grounds Project from an idea into crews of neighbors helping neighbors throughout Calhoun County.

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us get to work.
