Charlotte Community Foundation’s fall grant program supports local nonprofit services across five donor-designated priorities: veterans, seniors, youth, housing insecurity, and health care. The Mary V. Renois Family Fund provides unrestricted operating support for organizations serving veterans, seniors, and youth. Its priorities include veterans’ transition to civilian life, seniors’ quality of life, and young people’s access to education, employment training, and healthy, active lives.
Program grants through the Milly D. Hill Fund to Assist the Homeless and the Virginia B. Andes Health Fund support efforts to reduce homelessness and improve community health. Housing work includes direct services, prevention, housing solutions, outreach, and support systems. Health care includes physical, mental, and behavioral health, preventive and primary care, nutrition, wellness, and access to quality care. Both opportunities strengthen work already underway in Charlotte County.
