On Monday, June 10, Boys Home was presented with a $2,000 grant from People’s Bank Foundation Inc. The bank has a local branch in Covington, Virginia, that offers trusts, investments, mortgage, home equity loans, insurance and full banking services. Boys Home is truly grateful for the support! The grant will be designated for the current facilities campaign.
Boys Home’s matching facilities grant campaign will run through November 15, 2024. So far, over $50,000 has been raised toward a goal of $100,000. Projects funded by the grant include a HVAC upgrade and various roofing repairs. To learn more about the grant, please contact Director of Development, Dr. J.R. Farrington at 980-258-1484.
