Winning Nomination
Charles Blandin put his time, talent, and faith in our community and stayed with us. He not only supplied jobs and good wages and working conditions but supported the town and schools financially. His legacy, the Blandin Foundation, continues to assist not only Grand Rapids but the state in many, many ways. Our community would not be the success story it is without his support.
