New grant for Chrysalis building repairs

Edmonton, AB — Chrysalis is excited to receive a grant from the Community Facility Enhancement Program (CFEP). On Tuesday, July 28, Edmonton-Calder MLA Doug Elniski presented a cheque for $93,769 on behalf of CFEP to Chrysalis.

“This grant will provide Chrysalis with much needed repairs to our Edmonton facility which has been in operation since 1969,” says Chrysalis CEO and President Lynn Groves Hautmann. “The building improvements will ensure that we are operating in an environment which provides the best quality service to individuals at Chrysalis.”

Plans for this grant include replacing the 41-year old boiler and completing repairs to the buildings roof.

CFEP is funded by the Government of Alberta and provides financial assistance to build, repair, renovate or otherwise improve Alberta’s extensive network of community-use facilities.
