Join us to celebrate The Grove MGM's first year in Montgomery! The Grove supports young women transitioning out of Foster Care in Alabama. They provide dignified, affordable housing and support to bridge the gap between the foster care system and independence. Your participation and/or donation goes towards maintenance of the newly-renovated space and sponsoring the current and future young women who call The Grove their home. You can visit thegrovemgm.org for more information.
