The Dauphin and District Community Foundation has announced all the grant recipients.
David Bosiak, Chair of the foundation, says by allowing 2 intakes for grants this year, they were able to help more groups than before.
Bosiak says their funds have grown every year, and are close to 90 thousand dollars currently.
Moving forward, they are planning to support different kinds of projects, such as programs and services that enhance the community.
At yesterday’s grant luncheon, Kathy Freiheit was named Philanthropist of the Year.
22 grants were accepted for the intakes, receiving a total of $82,725.
