Delaware County Agency Gets State Grant
A Delaware County community action agency will receive a nearly $150,000 grant from New York State's Hunger Prevention and Nutrition Assistance Program. Delaware Opportunities Inc. will be using the money to feed the needy and are required to devote a portion of the funding to food identified as helpful in the prevention of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. The program provides $36.5 million in statewide funding to provide more than 216 million meals a year to low-income New Yorkers.
