Welcome to Keweenaw Family Resource Center!

Due to schools having a late start on January 28th, Lake Linden playgroup is canceled.

UPDATED JANUARY 25TH

KFRC is not accepting some items for the baby closet at this time.  Please do not drop off items without an appointment.  Please call us at 482-9363.

KFRC is raffling off a beautiful quilt titled “Wonderful Wildflowers.” Wildflowers is a collection of 6 different machine applique flowers. This large beautiful wall quilt (57” x 70”) uses batik fabrics for a more natural look. With over 78  colors of thread and 36 different fabrics, this is a unique high contrast creation, which will immediately add warmth and charm to any blank wall.  Hang it when you think the snow will never end! Tickets are $2 each or 3 for $5. The drawing will be held May 26, 2010.

KFRC offices have moved! We are now located at Redridge Plaza on Sharon Avenue, Suites 5 and 6 - the future home of the Tree House! We apologize if we have missed your call or visit during this past week as we have been busy moving equipment and setting up phone lines. Our phone number remains 482-9363. As of this week, there is not an opening date for the Tree House. We are working as hard as we can to open as soon as possible but much remains to be done. We will keep you updated.
