The Board of the Canastota Area Association of Churches is pleased to announce that the 2019 Grant program wrapped-up at a recent Breakfast at Believers Chapel, with checks being presented to our four Canastota area Volunteer Fire and Ambulance Companies. Fund raising was strong again this year, resulting in our ability to both extend the grant program an additional year, and increase the amount of each grant. This would not have been possible without the thoughtful giving of local businesses, civic organizations, and individuals. We would like thank the following entities and families for their generous support this year:
The churches of the CAAC plan to continue the grant program again in 2020, and have already voted to maintain the grants at $1,000 for each volunteer company, based on the giving trends over the past three years. The support of the entire Canastota community is both essential to continued success, and very much appreciated by the CAAC and the four benefitting organizations: the Canastota VFD, Lincoln VFD, Wampsville VFD, and Greater Lenox Ambulance Service. Anyone interested in additional information or supporting future Volunteer First Responder Grants is encouraged to contact the CAAC Board by mail at 2743 Perryville Road, Canastota 13002 or by phone at 315-655-9742, (faxes accepted.)
