Foundation Gives Big Grants
Local nonprofits are recipients of Long Island Community Foundation grants, which amount to $607,000 across Nassau and Suffolk.
The Long Island Community Foundation, a nonprofit that aims to make Long Island a better place to live and work, announced sizable grants this month for a number of local organizations.
Locally, the Long Island Jobs with Justice, in Hauppauge, received $25,000 to gather information on worker safety and the impact of mold, while advocating for local policies to set disaster recovery health practices.
“These grants, generously given by Long Islanders and other New Yorkers, will have an immediate effect on improving schools, the environment, and the arts across the Island,” said David M. Okorn, the executive director of the Syosset-based foundation.
The recent grants total $607,000, distributed all across Nassau and Suffolk.
