The Durham Council of Garden Clubs was founded in 1929 in federation with the National Garden Club and The Garden Club of North Carolina, Inc. The Council served more than eight decades as the umbrella group for garden clubs and junior garden clubs in Durham, NC. Today, Durham Garden Clubs continue the same mission of philanthropic projects of preservation, conservation, education and beautification under District 9 of the Garden Clubs of NC.

CASA Open House for Denson Apartments for Veterans, Nov. 18
CASA is pleased to share an invitation to the Open House Ceremony for The Denson Apartments for Veterans along with some great news: thanks to the garden clubs of Durham's great help, the $27,000 community fundraising goal for the Denson project has been exceeded!
Durham garden club gifts will purchase plants, trees, and landscaping material for the community that will beautify the grounds for years to come. All gifts above the goal will be used to offset expenses for the retention pond and stormwater drainage necessary to complete this project.
We hope that you can join us on Tuesday, November 18 at 10:00 a.m. as we dedicate these safe, permanent homes for veterans in need. The apartments and Open House ceremony will be held at: 1598 Sedgefield St., Durham, NC. Because of your support, eleven veterans will find a safe, permanent and supportive home at The Denson Apartments for Veterans by the end of 2014. In 2015, we will begin construction on a second building at the Denson site that will provide 12 more apartments for veterans in need.
Thank you for all that you do to improve the lives of others in the Durham community. We sincerely appreciate you taking on this project with us and your generous support.
With a grateful heart,
Debra King
CASA, CEO
