Committee OKs donations for Saugustee tennis, recovery ministry and outreach group
Summary
The committee approved three community contributions: $5,000 to Saugustee High School tennis, $7,000 to Sunshine Recovery Ministries to help cover treatment entry costs, and $7,000 to Traveling Apostles for Christ Corporation for outreach to low-income and homeless residents; the motion passed by voice vote.
A committee presenter outlined three recommended community contributions and said they would be funded by council members' contributions. The first was $5,000 to support Saugustee High School's boys and girls tennis programs for court maintenance and equipment. The second was $7,000 to Sunshine Recovery Ministries to support entry fees for new individuals entering their treatment program. The third was $7,000 to Traveling Apostles for Christ Corporation to support outreach services for low-income and homeless residents, including personal-care items and food supplies.
The presenter said the contributions would come from multiple council members (with District 5 excluded for two of the allocations) and moved the recommendation. The committee recorded an "Aye" vote to approve the contributions during the meeting.
No additional eligibility conditions or reporting requirements were recorded in the transcript; committee members asked no substantive follow-up questions on distribution mechanics during the session.
