The Foundation is currently accepting applications for the Mary B. Grogan Fund for Youth. Created in 2001, in dedication of Mary Grogan's decades of leadership in the Worcester County 4-H Foundation, the fund specifically benefits young residents of Millbury. The fund provides financial support for educational and recreational projects in the following categories:
- Benefitting Millbury youth
- Supporting an educational or recreational program, especially those focusing on aspects of the environment, agriculture, horticulture and animal life
- Attracting other resources or secure matching funds from public or private sources.
An appointed advisory committee of Millbury residents determines how grants will be awarded. Typical grants range from $200 - $1,000. Applicants must be a nonprofit that supports Millbury youth.
Applications for both funds must be received by October 17, 2016. For more information, contact Sarah Shugrue, at sshugrue@greaterworcester.org or 508-755-0980.
