GRACE Staff was excited to attend the 65th Annual Grapevine Community Awards Banquet presented by Bank of the West and hosted by the Grapevine Chamber of Commerce, which were held on Thursday, February 1st at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center. This event is a celebration of the individuals and businesses who make our community outstanding!
GRACE was truly honored to be nominated for Organization of the Year and GRACEful Buys & Donation Station was equally honored to be nominated for the Business Hall of Fame. We were so proud of our own Shirley Roberts to be a nominee for the D.E. Box Citizen of the Year; Kristina Davis as a Rising Star nominee and Stacy Pacholick as a Don Ramey Community Spirit nominee.
At GRACE, we strive to be good stewards of the community. Giving back and raising awareness of community involvement is a key factor in the GRACE mission. We are so proud of all the nominees and winners this year. GRACE is a proud member of the Chamber and looks forward to continued staff involvement in chamber events and leadership roles in this next year.
