The money is pouring in!
Well, I’m not sure if you’d call it pouring in, but it’s definitely moving at a good pace. Thanks to two organizations that believe in giving money away and giving money away to valuable organizations doing their best to making our community a better place, we have successfully gone 2 for 2 on grants.
St Joseph Community Foundation: $1500
Thanks a ton to Margaret Distler for considering NLFW an organization worth funding. 100% of the funding will go directly into NLFW projects in the form of materials. Those projects will be made possible by the support of SJCF.
Sam’s Club Foundation: $1000
Thanks to Jan and the local Sam’s Club for seeing NLFW as an organization worth giving 1 of only 8 $1000 grants to NLFW this half of their giving year. We were 1 of 8 that were awarded of over 20 applications.
I couldn’t be any more encouraged by what’s possible given people that care and are willing to invest in making our the city a better place. These funds will be used to transform a few difficult home related issues for a few of our city’s marginalized and vulnerable home owners. With 100% of these funds going directly to materials and the work being done by volunteers, these dollars can go a lot further.
If you are a NLFW coach and you would like access to up to $500 of this grant money and have a project you’ve been waiting to tackle, contact me and submit a proposal on how you’d use the money to bless someone else.
