Results from our 2009 Grants Program
|
|
The UUCFL Endowment Fund, Inc. (EFI) announces its
grants for 2009-2010. Three are going
to community recipients, one new and
two repeat grantees. The new
community grantee is
Gilda’s Club, a
non-profit organization providing
support for cancer patients, their family
and friends. The specific project the
grant will partially support is a winter
party for both child clients and children of clients at
Gilda’s Club. Two repeat grantees are the
Cooperative
Feeding Program for ongoing support, and the
ongoing hospice work of Laura Sue, the Silver
Nightingale. Her flute playing offers solace for
patients and families.
One new grantee has an international focus: The Heifer Project. The aim is to provide an ongoing source of income to primarily rural families. Our grant will provide a llama to a South American family. Within the church, we are granting Susan Friend, our Director of Religious Education, funds to support her continuing education. She will use this for training to enhance her professional growth, enriching the Religious Education programs. Our other grantee is for Building and Grounds, to support their project of reclaiming the picnic tables, expanding our capacity to accommodate the growing popularity of our after-services Sunday coffee hour/luncheon hour. The UUCFL EFI was founded in 1983 to develop funds and disburse “the income therefrom and the principle (sic) thereof exclusively for charitable, religious and educational purposes either directly or by contributions to the UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CHURCH OF FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA, INC.” “No property or funds of this Corporation shall be disbursed or distributed to any charitable, religious, or educational body, entity, organization, group association, corporation, or fund without the written consent of a majority of the Trustees of the UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CHURCH OF FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA, INC. . .” (The quotes are from the EFI Charter; accessible on this website. --David Fisher, Secretary |
