The grants are coming from last year s extra funding to help support pandemic recovery.
JEFFERSON CITY - United Way of Central Missouri held a news conference Tuesday to distribute $154,879 in grants to several of its partner agencies to help support pandemic recovery.
The funds came from the 2020 United Way Campaign, which exceeded its fundraising goal by $400,000. The rest of that money will be given as grants in late June. Jake Young, KOMU 8 Reporter
