GROW Project
“Greenbrier Residents for Outreach to the World”

Mission:  The GROW Project for Community Wellness Initiative strives to empower young people to make changes that will improve their health and ultimately the quality of their lives in this community.

The GROW Project is a non-profit organiztion recognized under Internal Revenue Code section 501 (c)(3). Headed by GROW Executive Co-Director, Bimbo Coles and Assistant Co-Director Laura Lee, the local initiative focuses on the empowerment of our community youth by promoting not only their philanthropic nature, but motivating and coaching children to use their own athletic ability to make changes and improve their own quality of life.  

As part of the Wellness initiative, The GROW Project is working on the renovation of the former “Bolling School” in Lewisburg, WV to become a functional youth recreation center for Greenbrier County.  This center will increase access and opportunity for not only recreation and physical fitness (such as basketball, indoor soccer, batting cages, individual sports training, rock climbing wall and much more) for the youth of our community but will provide opportunities for our local community to enjoy other events such as dances, fundraising opportunities for local groups, meetings, conferences, etc.  

GROW has defined the center’s renovation into multiple phases.  Phase 1 (to be completed as soon as possible) will be to upgrade the existing gymnasium as well as stage area with the final Phase to eventually include the addition of another gymnasium to incorporate multiple activities at one time.  

All donations given through this GoFund Me campaign are you soley for capital improvements to The Bolling School. Renovations are ongoing at this time, but Phase 1 can be complete and utilization of the gym and stage area can begin in the near future with your support. All donations are tax deductible.

Community involvement is essential to the success of this project.  The future of our youth depends on projects of this nature.  By creating and promoting athletic, recreational and other programs that will be unique and challenging not only to our children but to our community as a whole, is detrimental but is not possible without proper funding.
