Manson Library receives $1,000 community grant

MANSON — The Manson Library has been awarded a $1,000 grant from the Confluence Health and Wenatchee Valley Medical Group (WVMG) Community Partnership Fund.

The grant, part of the organization's 2024 Community Partnership Fund, is designed to support community initiatives across four North Central Washington counties: Chelan, Douglas, Grant, and Okanogan. The fund specifically targets programs focused on health and wellness, education, and arts and culture in the region.

"This past summer, we submitted our application to the Community Partnership Fund Committee, sharing the vision and impact of the programs offered by our library. We are thrilled to report that we received the grant to support this important work," Sally Anderson, a Manson Library Board of Directors representative, said.

The library submitted its application to the Community Partnership Fund Committee during the summer, outlining the vision and impact of its programs. The grant will support the library's ongoing work in the community.

"We look forward to the positive changes this grant will bring and are excited to begin implementing these initiatives. We are also incredibly thankful for the community's ongoing support, which makes our mission possible," Anderson said.

The funding will help support programs and activities the Manson Library provides for the community. The library board expressed excitement about implementing new initiatives and gratitude for the community's ongoing support.

The Community Partnership Fund represents a collaborative effort between Confluence Health and WVMG to invest in local community development. The initiative serves as part of both organizations' broader mission to enhance the quality of life throughout North Central Washington.
