$66.5K Grant for AOI
The Christian Foundation has just blessed
AOI a $66,500 grant which will be used to
upgrade our computer systems, purchase a
scanning system for the Storehouse and
purchase Christian materials for the
CHRISTmas Gift Project (formerly
Shoebox Santas) and Baby Bonus Baskets. Some funding has also been allocated
to augment executive director and general
manager wages. Thanks to the Christian
Foundation for their consideration and support of Appalachian Outreach and our mission.
