Love Stanislaus presents neighborhood toolkit and mini-grants; council recognizes local volunteers
Summary
A Love Stanislaus County director described a neighborhood-connection toolkit and mini-grants to boost social connection; the council also presented Volunteer and Neighbor of the Year proclamations to Robert Vega and Robert Wolf.
Gabby, a director with Love Stanislaus County, described the nonprofit’s "Love Our Neighbors" program and encouraged Waterford residents to apply for mini-grants and use a neighborhood-connection toolkit available in English and Spanish.
Gabby said the program has surveyed participants across Stanislaus County and that recipients report higher levels of neighborly connection and optimism. Mini-grants typically range from $50 to $200 (larger awards for bigger events have been made in other cities).
Council members thanked the presenter and encouraged local groups to apply. The council then presented proclamations recognizing Robert Vega as the city’s 2025 Volunteer of the Year and Robert Wolf as Neighbor of the Year; each recipient thanked nominators and the council.
The presentation and awards were offered as information; no council action was required.
