To the editor:

BI Special Needs Foundation/Stephens House clients, staff and board want to thank Rotary for a grant to purchase new floor covering for Stephens House.

The vintage black-and-white tile pattern in the kitchen make that busy space warm and welcoming, while the new carpeting in the gathering areas is perfect for the projects, shared meals and visiting that happen on a daily basis in this lovely old house.

In addition to Rotary, we thank all of who donate to Rotary’s amazing auction, who buy the treasures, and who work the long hours. And how did all of that furniture get moved? Willing Kiwanis members arrived twice to move tables, chairs and cabinets from room to room.

But wait! There’s more! Bainbridge Floor Covering and Supply helped the staff make the flooring selections and did a masterful job of installation.

We love our “new” house. Thanks to all who helped make this change happen.
