Foundation gives $100K grants to two area organizations
Moline, IA (WQAD) — Two area organizations are receiving $100,000 grants from the Quad City Community Foundation to help improve various aspects of their area.
The East Moline and United Township School Districts, and Humility Homes and Services are each getting a Transformation Grant to help bring equitable solutions to problems in their local areas.
“The past year has shed light on the racial and socioeconomic issues of our country,” said Sherry Ristau, president and CEO. “And while we must all continue to educate ourselves about the inequities that touch our community, nation and world, it is also important for us to act on great ideas and long-term solutions to those challenges. The grants we are awarding today are part of our commitment to building a just, inclusive and equitable community.”
