1744 Payne Avenue
Project Overview
|
|
In December 2004, the MHS Board of Trustees authorized the purchase and renovation of a three-story, 36,000-square-foot office building at 1744 Payne Avenue in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. This purchase launched the Board’s $6 million strategic initiative to create the physical infrastructure to sustain the operations of MHS, and support its continued growth and development. When construction and renovations are completed in the autumn of 2006, the structure will become the agency headquarters, and house programs that are currently based at three sites.

Operational Support
MHS would also like to thank those who make grants for operational support. MHS incurs critical operational costs (e.g., staff training, and organizational certification) that are not covered by service fees or program revenues, and grants for operational support are particularly valuable.
MHS thanks the Saint Luke's Foundation of Cleveland, Ohio, for its generous grant of $100,000 on 4 November 2005, and an additional grant of $200,000 on 20 December 2006. Both grants support services for critical community needs.
MHS also thanks The Elisabeth Severance Prentiss Foundation for its grant of $250,000 in November 2006, also for operational support.
