Parkersburg Area Community Foundation
Marian Clowes, from the Parkersburg Area Community Foundation visited us last week. She was proposing giving our agency a grant to purchase shoes for children in our programs, from a generous family fund within their foundation. The children of a long time shoe store owner in Parkersburg have started the fund, and want to use funds to help bring shoes to children in the community who are in need, much as their father did for years when he had a shoe store. The employees of Suddenlink have had some fund raisers this year, the proceeds for which go into this fund. We will be announcing the details of it shortly.
