(Atlantic) Snyder & Associates has donated $50,000 to Vision Atlantic’s transformative project, which will bring a housing development, a new childcare center, and an expansion of the YMCA to Atlantic.
“It can’t be overstated how transformative this project will be for Atlantic. It is an exciting initiative for Snyder & Associates to participate in, and we appreciate Vision Atlantic’s commitment to progress. This will be an incredible accomplishment that will have immeasurable benefits for our community,” Dave Sturm, Atlantic Business Unit Leader at Snyder & Associates, stated.
Vision Atlantic, through extensive research and surveying of the community and surrounding region, identified three areas that will help increase Atlantic’s population: expanded childcare, quality housing, and quality of life amenities. Construction of the 144-unit mixed-use housing development, 300-capacity child development center, and expansion of the current YMCA facility is slated to begin in late spring 2025.
With substantial monetary support from the Charles E. Lakin Foundation and local donors, $18.4 million has been raised in the past 11 months, over 60% of a $30 million goal. Vision Atlantic’s Project Committee is actively working to secure the remaining $11.8 million needed to meet the fundraising goal.
