Thank you to Beacon Credit Union and all who voted for the healthy families program.
Healthy Families Receives $500 from Project Spotlight
October 24, 2013
Healthy Families was the recent 2nd place finisher in the Beacon Credit Union Project Spotlight contest. Online voting for the early childhood development program netted a $500.00 check that will be used for expenses related to the home visitation and incentive program.
Families who are expecting or have just had a child may qualify for the voluntary program and receive educational materials and support from a home visitor until the child turns three. The voluntary program rewards parents with incentives as they meet goals and benchmarks. It has been a challenge to pay for the diapers, laundry soap, clothing items or books that are given to the families.
This donation will help provide these incentives for the families.
