The Greater Delaware County Community Foundation has announced this year’s round of McGee Barr Grants.
The grants are funded by the interest and earnings on the money left to the foundation by Garrett McGee, who specified in his will that the funds should be used to help the poor of Delaware County. This year’s grant recipients are Second Helpings, the Delaware County Food Bank, Helping Services, the Riverview Center, Lutheran Services, West Delaware’s Back to School Fair, Junior Achievement, First Presbyterian Church’s Birthday Bag Program and the Methodist Church’s Clothing Closet. The grants totaled over $25,000.
