Help Us Improve Our Building!

We need your help

The Keene Senior Center is requesting your support of a building improvements project for safety and accessibility that is a major part of our planning to re-open. The project was envisioned during a 2019 update of the strategic plan, however it has become a high priority because of safety issues related to COVID-19. 


The upgrades would make possible a one-way flow of people through the facility, and create more space in the multipurpose room for social distancing during programs and classes. We also plan to build a new ramp, compliant to current safety standards, leading to the front door of The Senior Center.

Project Funding Status

Our project was selected in June, 2020 as a priority in the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy for Southwest NH (CEDS) by the Economic Development Advisory Committee of Southwest Region Planning Commission. The outside ramp was approved by Keene Historic District Commission on June 18, 2020. The total cost of the interior and exterior components is expected to be $150,000.
