Giving Kids a Greenhouse Grows a Community
WELLAND, ON – Rose City Kids recently unveiled its plans for building a rooftop greenhouse solarium. At the annual fundraising dinner it was revealed that the greenhouse structure has been donated by GGS Structures Inc.
Rose City Kids is a non-profit organization whose goal is to make a difference in the lives of children ages 4-12 living in Welland. Rose City Kids is described as a free program held every other Saturday to let kids just be kids, and to give them hope. They launched their first program in March 2008, and it now serves over 600 children.
The greenhouse is custom designed to fit the roof section available for construction. GGS worked with their sister company, JGS Limited, which specializes in architectural greenhouses and roof top greenhouse construction.
