I am so proud to be a part of our community, where philanthropy is a part of our fabric!
Thank you to Community Foundation serving West Central Illinois and Northeast Missouri.
Cheerful Home was the recipient of $27,000 from their COVID-19 Response Fund for Nonprofits. These funds supplement our decreased revenue so that we may continue to provide childcare for Essential Workers during this pandemic.
“During these challenging times, nonprofits are working tirelessly to assist the increasing number of individuals who are experiencing hardship,” said Catherine Meckes, Community Foundation. “But, they can’t do it without support. These funds will help our nonprofit partners provide vital services and resources to more families and hopefully, reduce the hardship this crisis will have on our region.”
