The project is currently at 90% of funding ($114,000 of the $125,000 project). Donations and/or in-kind contributions count towards the challenge. Please contact any officers or board members to donate time and/or materials. Donations may be mailed to the WMSIH offices at PO Box 273, Coopersville, MI 49404.

Coopersville Area Community Foundation
This project is made possible by multiple grants from the Coopersville Area Community Foundation Community Action Fund. The Coopersville Area Community Foundation is an affiliate of the Grand Haven Area Community Foundation.


An initial $500 grant provided funding for the purchase of the project railcar. A recent $1,000 grant will provide funding for the renovation and installation of a handicap lift and related equipment.
