GHS Key Club Assists Foundation

Every year, the Granville Foundation requests area residents for financial support.  This fall, some 30 members of Granville High School's Key Club provided us invaluable assistance by stuffing, addressing, and sealing several thousand solicitation letters. We can't thank them enough!
