We provided special assistance for kids when their parents' homes were destroyed. We also provided clothing and toys when the parents lost their insurance. And when children need medications, we provide a month's supply of medication ... so the kids are not hurt.
For every $2 of our money, we received $1 of federal money. We got $96,000 and earmarked it three years ago from the match.
We [Children's Services Council] have $110,000 in an interest-bearing CD toward it.
We do help by putting money aside as a medically needy fund for children who are not insured.
We send out a request for proposal and the agency comes up with a program and applies for a grant to fund it.
We are putting money aside for scholarships. We are working on the application process.
The council knew there are things missing in the community for teens to do. So money is being put aside for a teen center. Jill Rogers is putting it together.
