The organization has received multiple federal grant awards, primarily from the Corporation for National and Community Service's Office of Grants Management, with a significant focus on the AmeriCorps Seniors Foster Grandparent Program. Its federal grant awards and sub-awards demonstrate a comprehensive approach to community support, including energy assistance, poverty amelioration, and senior volunteer programs. Specific grant activities include the Foster Grandparent Program, which pairs senior volunteers aged 55 and older with children with special needs or academic challenges, and sub-awards from the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs for home energy assistance, water and wastewater services, and crisis support. The organization has received grants to assist eligible households with home energy costs, distribute emergency supplemental funding, and provide support under various federal appropriations acts. These grants typically require a statutory match between 10-15% and focus on direct community support and poverty reduction strategies.
