Horizons money starting to flow

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

The first Horizons money requests were granted at the Leadership Team meeting on Tuesday. The Education Future Squad will get $750 for interpreter services for Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) classes. The classes are being held by the Good Samaritan community in May, June and July.

The other grant was $500 to the Green Team Future Squad to get their names on the reusable shopping bags that are going to be sold at grocery stores and around town. Besides being environmentally friendly, the project is a social contribution because the proceeds from selling the bags will go to a scholarship fund for low-income students.

This money comes out of the first $1,500 payment from the Northwest Area Foundation (the parent of Horizons) to St. James. Another $8,500 will be coming upon the completion of the Horizons program.
