The Neighborhood Care Center was pleasantly surprised by the amount of funds they raised in efforts for a facilities project, leaving them with some money left over.
Mandi Ries with the NCC indicates that they were less than a week away from their deadline to raise the remaining $5,000 of a $50,000 facilities renovation project for their distribution center. After one last call to action, they ended up meeting their goal, and raising an extra $8,000 to use for something else.
Executive Director Cody Monkman explains that with those extra funds, they would like to begin an official internship program. He says the McLean County Facility has a livable area inside it, allowing them to offer free housing as a part of the program.
Ries notes that part of the funds will be used to prepare that living space. The pair reiterate that it is a very exciting time for the Neighborhood Care Center, and they are grateful for their partnership with Constellation, which has supported many of their endeavors.
