Burroughs Community Center was awarded the funds from our Q3 2020 meeting.
How the funds will be used
Total Donations Awarded so far: $2778
"The funds that we receive will be used to pay the OWC refugee artists to continue to make masks for organizations that serve needy populations. It will allow Burroughs to purchase materials to augment the donations of materials for the masks. It will help to cover some of our operating costs to manage and keep the program running." ~ Darryl Manning
