FOOT Awarded Hampton Youth and Young Adult Opportunities Grant for Garden Improvements:
We are excited to announce that Families Overcoming Obstacles Together has been awarded $6,600 in grant funding from the city of Hampton’s Office of Youth and Young Adult Opportunities to support educational materials and Community Learning Garden maintenance and development.
FOOT is grateful for this award and we are excited to put it towards Garden improvements such as enhanced wheelchair accessibility, improved sustainability, and greater access to resources for visitors to our Garden.
For the past eight years, we have carefully tended to the Garden and expanded our programming to serve hundreds of Hampton residents per year. With this infusion of funding, we look forward to offering an even greater degree of support to our community.
Once again, we thank the city of Hampton for this generous award.
