Michael Schaffer


Michael works with Bon Secours, serving as Community Schools Coordinator. In this role, he supports over 350 families, connecting them with resources and programs.

For Michael, it is important that the community can identify with safe and engaging open spaces within their neighborhoods.

The Moon Garden represents an intergenerational open space where Youth, Golden Agers & Families can engage in Community Activities or organic beautification projects.
