CHEER Inc. recently received monetary support from the M&T Charitable Foundation to assist with construction of the CHEER Gateway East Administration and Support Services Building.
A long-term commitment of $30,000 was initiated with the recent presentation of the first of three $10,000 yearly payments to CHEER CEO Beckett Wheatley. The new building will house CHEER’s administrative team, which has been working in the Adams State Service Building in Georgetown for more than 40 years.
The plan is to break ground later this year for the new CHEER building on the agency’s property behind the CHEER Community Center on Sand Hill Road, east of Georgetown. Construction is expected to be completed within a year.
