The Senior Citizens Agency of Northern Door (SCAND), in partnership with the Door County Community Foundation, has awarded $106,000 in grants during the inaugural cycle of the Bargains Unlimited Charitable Fund, supporting projects that benefit working families and older adults across Northern Door County.
Six local organizations received funding in the first round of grants. These organizations include Cycling Without Age Door County, Door County Medical Center, the Door County YMCA, Sunshine Resources, Unity Hospice, and the Washington Island Community Health Program.
“The committee felt that these projects truly aligned with our mission,” said Ford-Hoffert “These are projects that make a broad impact, helping provide much needed services for working people and seniors in Door County.”
The Bargains Unlimited Charitable Fund builds on a legacy that began in 1995, when the Bargains Unlimited resale store opened to support Northern Door residents.
Applications for the next grant cycle are due by June 22, through the Community Foundation website.
