Amara Rose Foundation to buy banners and 140 yard signs for Vernon County opioid outreach
Summary
The Amara Rose Foundation will spend its full $25,000 county grant plus a $200 donation and $182 of its own funds to purchase 16 banners and 140 yard signs to promote opioid-prevention messaging across Vernon County.
Amy Oliver, Vernon County grants manager, told the Opioid Prevention and Steering Committee on July 10 that the Amara Rose Foundation will purchase 16 banners and 140 yard signs to be displayed at county events and rotated among municipalities.
Oliver said the foundation intends to spend its entire $25,000 allocation, supplemented by a $200 donation and $182 of its own funds, to complete the project. The committee was told the banners will be mounted on fences at baseball games and that the signs will be shared and rotated through other local events.
Committee members did not record a formal vote on the item at the meeting; members discussed publicity and outreach logistics during member sharing. The update was presented as a project modification to an existing grant award. The committee did not specify a delivery schedule for the materials.
The committee’s next regular meeting is Sept. 11, 2024. Staff and the grants manager will be responsible for following up on distribution plans and any remaining administrative requirements.
