What a day! 🎉 Today, we celebrated 40 years of affordable housing at Canal Village in Canal Wi******er, Ohio.

We reflected on the past and recognized the strong community it is today—made possible by the many organizations and individuals who have supported Canal Village and its residents over the years.

We were honored to hear directly from residents and welcome a special visit from Mayor Joe Steager as we celebrated this milestone.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to the many partners and supporters who continue to make a difference in the lives of Canal Village residents every day. Here’s to 40 years of abundant aging!
