In partnership with the Association of Washington Business (AWB), Greater Grays Harbor, Inc. (GGHI) presented the Oakville Firefighters for Families a check for $1,000. The award presentation took place on Friday, December 10 at 108 W Main St. in Oakville.
The Oakville Fire District’s non-profit, Firefighters for Families has been awarded this grant funding thanks to the AWB Holiday Kids’ Tree Project. Since 1989, AWB’s project has provided toys and food to deserving rural families during the holiday season. The grant money is targeted to the Washington State rural and small-town areas where there typically is no access to larger urban donation facilities.
Representatives from GGHI, public officials, and community members were invited to attend. GGHI presented the check as well as a collection of toys to help begin filling Santa’s bag.
