Family Access Network receives Oregon Community Recovery Fund grant
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) The Family Access Network received a $5,000 grant late last year from the Oregon Community Recovery Fund of Oregon Community Foundation. These funds will provide Latinx families in Jefferson County assistance with resources to address food insecurity brought on as a result of COVID-19’s economic impacts.
“COVID-19 has taken a disproportionately toll on the low-income families FAN serves in general, and on Latinx families in particular. This grant from the Oregon Community Foundation will alleviate hunger for many of the most vulnerable children in our community during this difficult season,” said Julie N. Lyche, FAN executive director.
