Farmers support Foundation
We would like to thank all those who supported our effort to raise awareness of the Homer Foundation by buying from us at this summer's Farmers Market.

It was our hope that more people would learn about the good done by the Foundation through grants to worthwhile projects of area non-profit organizations. A quick check reveals that there were 44 grants ranging from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars awarded to Homer and Anchor Point non-profit organizations and charities in the last fiscal year. These grant categories covered works in arts and culture, capital projects, conservation/environment, education, general operating support, health and social services, organizational infrastructure, philanthropy, sports and recreation, and youth programs.

The work and fun of this project brought in $4,214. Because of our belief that the Foundation is so worthwhile, we are contributing a matching amount. It is our hope that others in the community will consider contributing to the Foundation. For information, contact Joy at 235-0541.

Beth and Dave Schroer
