In its own words
The members research other local charities which are involved with children who are physically or mentally challenged. In junction with the city of niagara falls and the public library we are creating a story book trail. The concept is to have a place where families can go to walk and also read story books along the trail. The goal is to provide something for families to do children to read and all to get exercise. Unfortunately due to covid construction had been delayed due to the shortage of materials. The project was finished and opened for use in 2023.
