The Morrow County Commis­
sion on Children and Families has
established a community devel­
opment fund. The fund will be
used for community needs and to
leverage other funds and re ­
sources into services, advocacy
and unique application projects
for the children, youth and fami­
lies of Morrow County.
Approximately $1,000 will be
available each quarter and the
maximum grant would be $500.
Examples of reasonable fund re­
quests include seasonal program
needs; small capital expenditures
(except for private property); ser­
vice program staff training; one­
time events and pilot projects.
Home day care providers may
also apply for funds to enhance
their services, but they must be
registered by the state or have reg­
istration forms submitted to the
state for approval at the time of
request for funds.
Proposals will be reviewed on
Oct. 14 during the monthly com­
mission meeting and must be re­
ceived by the commission office
by Tuesday, Sept. 30 to be con­
sidered. Copies of request proce­
dures are available at the commis­
