Elderly Needs

This fund was created in 1992, acquiring its own assets through a transfer of funds from FACF. The purpose of the Elderly Needs Fund is to make grants to support health and enrich aging for the elderly of Newaygo County.

The strategies of the Elderly Needs Fund include:

• Promote the physical health of the elderly
• Promote the mental/emotional well being of the elderly and their caregivers
• Promote the social enrichment and prevent the social isolation of the elderly
• Promote the provision of basic human services for the elderly

Regular application deadlines are February 15 and September 15 each year.

Our new application form is available under the Grant Forms tab to the left.
