PROVIDENCE – Beautiful Day, a nonprofit that helps refugees find employment through its kitchen that makes and distributes homemade granola, has moved into new facilities in College Hill.
The nonprofit signed a five-year lease for space at 66 Benefit St., on the first floor of Hallworth House.
The building is owned by the Episcopal Diocese, and used to be a nursing home, according to a statement sent by Beautiful Day.
The 5,000-square-foot space occupies an area that used to be the dining area for the nursing home. It includes a large, commercial kitchen and an open space with views of the downtown.
“For the first time ever, all of our operations will be under one roof. We are over-the-top excited!” wrote the nonprofit, in the announcement to supporters and granola subscription members.
