WESTBROOK — A $750,000 donation was awarded to the city of Westbrook to make much-needed repairs to the former Wescott Jr. High School, home to the city’s community center.

The gift was made by the Cornelia Warren Community Association, a nonprofit that supports Westbrook’s recreation and athletic programs.

The donation, to be accepted by the City Council on Monday, will help fund a $4 million renovation project that includes replacing the community center's roof and all the exterior doors and windows.
