EAST PALESTINE, Ohio – The East Palestine Community Improvement Corporation recently received a $25,000 contribution from the Fraternal Order of Eagles 1506 in support of the Brighten Our Future campaign.
The campaign focuses on securing, restoring and reimagining properties in the heart of the village to create vibrant public plazas, retail storefronts and community-oriented spaces designed to host events, attract new business and generate revenue to support long-term redevelopment efforts.
As a designated Platinum Sponsor, the Fraternal Order Of Eagles 1506’s donation will directly support new construction after the demolition of the CIC Plaza, downtown.
“The village of East Palestine and the EP CIC extend their sincere appreciation to Carol Harvey and the rest of the East Palestine Eagles for their generosity and their unwavering support,” a news release from the East Palestine CIC states. “The support from the Eagles represents more than a financial contribution – it is a meaningful endorsement of the community’s shared vision for renewal, growth and long-term prosperity. Their support marks an important step forward in curating a dynamic future for East Palestine, one built on collaboration, optimism and a collective belief in what the community can achieve together.”
