The Dedham Institution for Savings Foundation has contributed $5,000 to the Westwood Historical Society to restore a historical building.

The funds will be used towards the restoration of the Baker House, a historical building that was the home of Betsey Metcalf Baker, one of the first women entrepreneurs. The grant will be used to support handicap accessibility, including a ramp and a restroom that meets Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, according to a statement.
