Notice of Grant Award from the Florida Blue Foundation - Park-Based Activities to Decrease Loneliness in Vulnerable Seniors

Recommended Action

The funding in this grant agreement provides for total award of $195,000 and requires no match of County Funds. Of the $195,000, $121,800 is for salary and benefit costs for the Senior Wellness Coordinator position, and $61,500 is to fund the purchase and installation of the two fitness zones. The balance of the funding is to cover promotional and educational expenses and program supplies.  A budget amendment will fund the grant and expenditures in MSTU Fund/Recreation.
