One of your neighbors posted in Neighbor News. Click through to read what they have to say. (The views expressed in this post are the author’s own.)The members of the TRFHSC have done some incredible work over the last (almost) 5 years! As we are winding down to the end of our NJHI grant, we made the decision to expend the remainder of our funding through a mini-grant program to support local non-profits who are working to impact health in Toms River, whether they were a member of our Coalition or not. Then, COVID-19 hit during the middle of the application timeframe and we choose to pivot the purpose of the mini-grant program to support the COVID-19 response and the needs of the Toms River community.
Read about the recipients of these mini-grants and how they've worked hard to meet the needs of Toms River residents, especially during this global pandemic.
