It was a big week for community investment in Savannah, with two uplifting milestones making headlines on Wednesday, July 1.
The City of Savannah officially broke ground on a new community center at Windsor Forest, marking a long-anticipated step forward for the southside neighborhood. The groundbreaking signals the start of construction on a facility that will serve Windsor Forest residents for years to come, giving the community a dedicated space for programs, gatherings, and activities.
Also on Wednesday, the Greater Savannah Black Chamber of Commerce held a celebration honoring local small business grant recipients. The event recognized entrepreneurs who received grant funding, shining a spotlight on the growing network of small businesses strengthening Savannah’s economy and community fabric. The Chamber’s celebration underscored the vital role that local business owners play in the city’s continued vitality.
Together, these two milestones reflect a Savannah that is investing in its neighborhoods and its people — from brand-new public facilities to the next generation of local business leaders. It’s a great time to be part of this community.
