GCM receives $750 Share the Love grant

April 6, 2016

Greer Community Ministries (GCM) has been awarded a $750 grant as part of the 2015 Meals on Wheels Driving the Movement grant program. The grant funding, raised through the 2015-2016 Subaru Share the Love event, is given to organizations that will use it to support America’s senior adults.

“Over the last eight years, Subaru and its local retailers have truly become an extension of the Meals on Wheels family, and their impact is felt long after this popular year-end event concludes,” said Ellie Hollander, Meals on Wheels America president and CEO. “Subaru’s continued investment in the Meals on Wheels movement helps communities across the country deliver more nutritious meals, friendly visits and safety checks to our most vulnerable seniors.”

GCM will use the funds to help purchase food for the Meals on Wheels program. The ministry expends $1,400 each week day to feed over 300 local senior adults.
