Scott County Community Clearinghouse Awarded Grant

Scott County Community Clearinghouse was awarded a $5,000 grant from the Scott County Community Foundation to assist financially needy families with rent and utilities during the winter. Shown are Clearinghouse Executive Director Nelson Spaulding and Scott County Community Foundation board member Adam Gibson. “Families will be prevented from being homeless and at least not having to do without basic needs,” said Spaulding. The Community Foundation awarded over $13,000 in grants this year, and will formally recognize recipients at the “Thanks4Giving” fall dinner on Nov. 13.
