Members of the board of The Greater Sun Lakes Community Foundation (The Foundation) were pleased to present a grant in the amount of $5,000 to Neighbors Who Care (NWC). These funds will be used to complete the purchase of a new passenger van which will be used by NWC to provide assistance in the areas of transportation, shopping/errands, grocery transport, friendly visitation, business assistance, dinner delivery, and caregiver relief/respite.

The Foundation regularly presents grants like this to many local community groups throughout each year, in order to enhance the quality of life for the older population in the East Valley, including all Sun Lakes residents, in the areas of health, education, and culture.
