Council Approves Grants to Non-Profit Organizations

Each fiscal year, the City Council allocates funding for non-profit organizations that provide services to the Addison community. Interested organizations are given an opportunity to submit a request for funds during the budget process that are evaluated by Town Staff and appointed Council Member Liaisons. Town Staff also reviews all applicable financials and verifies the organization is in good standing with both the IRS and Texas Secretary of State.

 

At its October 13 meeting, Council formally approved Fiscal Year 2021 funding for the following organizations:

 

Addison Arbor Foundation: $65,000

Metrocrest Services: $66,120

Dallas Cat Lady: $5,000

Metrocare Services: $2,500

Outcry Theatre: $2,500

Family Place: $2,500

Woven Health Clinic: $5,000

WaterTower Theatre: $375,000

 

All the agreements, except Metrocare Services, were approved as part of the Consent Agenda and not discussed by Council. You can watch Council's Metrocare Services discussion here.
