MAHS seeks “Pay Down the Mortgage” donations (update)

We reported last week that the Manchester Area Historical Society is in the midst of its Pay Down the Mortgage fundraising campaign. The campaign’s goal is to reduce and eliminate the mortgage principal on the historical society’s headquarters, the Kingsley-Jenter House, located on the corner of Main Street and M-52.

At this time, the balance is $165,635.37.

Donations can be mailed to: MAHS, P.O. Box 56, Manchester, MI 48158 (Please indicate “Pay Down The Mortgage” on the donation).

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
