Committee approves $8,000 for Special Olympics
Summary
Hancock County's Finance, Fees, and Salaries Committee approved an $8,000 allocation from contingencies to support the Special Olympics after a funding request from the program's organizer.
Lexi Huffman, Special Olympics organizer, asked the committee for a monetary gift to support local Special Olympics activities. Committee members noted Mental Health grant funds were already allotted for the year and could not cover the request.
Joe Boyles moved to allocate $8,000 from contingencies to the Special Olympics; Harry Douglas seconded. A roll-call vote recorded all members present voting yes and the motion carried. Huffman was asked to return to the board after the event to report on how the funds were used and the outcome of the competition.
The allocation will come from the committee's contingencies account. No additional conditions or matching requirements were recorded in the minutes.
