Join us on Saturday, July 23 as we help 15 families start their new lives off in supportive housing the best way possible! Thanks to a generous grant from The Wholeness Fund, FCC Minneapolis will be purchasing items for 11 2-bedroom and 4 3-bedroom apartments at Bloom-Lake Flats using Target gift cards. These apartments are the first in Clare Housing history for families!!
