Nonprofit McKinsey Home Project previews building purchase, fundraising and 2026 construction goal
Summary
Representatives of the McKinsey Home Project updated the council on plans to purchase a building, continued grant-seeking and a 2026 build start aimed at helping single mothers and their children.
Representatives of the McKinsey Home Project briefed the Green River City Council on April 8 about progress toward converting a building to provide housing and services for single mothers and their children.
The presenter said the nonprofit incorporated as a 501(c)(3) about three years ago and now has a 17-member board spanning three counties to signal statewide intent. The presenter said the group has gone under contract with the building’s owners and aims to complete purchase after an upcoming fundraising banquet. “Our goal is that we will be able to start build in 2026,” the presenter said.
Carrie Fisher, identified in the meeting as the Sweetwater County chair representative for the project, told the council the organization continues to provide referral-based help for single mothers in the community and has expanded its board to include Worland and other areas.
Councilwoman Bushman thanked the presenters and invited residents to the project fundraiser on April 26 at the Holiday Inn; no council action was requested or taken on the project during the meeting.
