After months of campaigning — all the rhetoric, the countless negative ads and the record-setting political spending — Pennsylvanians made a decision: We elected a divided state government.
More than 30 of Somerset Countyâs nonprofits â first responders, libraries and support providers, among them â received a share of $490,000 in support from the county Tuesday.
The list included groups that have been busy supporting people in need during the difficult COVID-19 pandemic â including the Next Step Center shelter, The Childrenâs Aid Home Programs and Somerset Countyâs food pantries, which each received $50,000 or more in reimbursements for their virus-related expenses, the commissioners board and Community Foundation for the Alleghenies announced.
âThese are organizations that truly (direct) their dollars to where they are needed the most,â President Commissioner Gerald Walker said. âWe hope these grants will help the organizations who have been impacted by the crisis and support them in the important role they play for those who live in Somerset County.â
