In April 2015, the Brooklyn Chamber Board of Directors launched the “Beautification Grant” program which was designed to assist our member organizations in enhancing their properties in Brooklyn. We were pleased to approve four organizations who applied for the grant: the Brooklyn Historical Society (a complete reseed of their front lawn), U.S. Shuai Chiao Kung Fu Academy (new advertising signage), 6779 Memphis Avenue (a complete new surface to their parking deck), and the City of Brooklyn (hanging baskets in strategic sites throughout Brooklyn). Each grant recipient received $500. The variety of enhancements was impressive. Congratulations to all our recipients. We hope to continue this “give back” program next Spring 2016. All of our members are welcome to apply for the Beautification Grant. here for pictures…
