Near & Far Aid Grant Recipients 2008 - 2009
$10 Million Granted in the past 10 years. The Agencies We Fund Make A Difference
They provide food & for the homeless & job education and training for the working poor.
- They run literacy and educational programs
for disadvantaged children and their families.
- They care for the elderly and for the victims of abuse, and provide access to quality health care for those who would otherwise be denied.
Some of these agencies are well established non-profits, while others are small but highly effective grass roots organizations. Large or small, they share a partnership with Near & Far Aid to effect lasting change on the lives of many.
