NICHOLS, N.Y. — The Tioga Downs Regional Community Foundation announced it has awarded $2 million in grants to more than 100 nonprofit organizations from Chemung, Tioga, and Broome counties in New York, and Bradford County in Pennsylvania.
More than 170 nonprofits applied for funding to help further their objectives, missions, and organizations as a whole. Award recipients were announced at a Tuesday Dec. 3 ceremony at Tioga Downs Casino Resort in Nichols.
“Through the experiences shared by our award winners, we eagerly anticipate the ripple effects of these grants making a real difference close to home,” Tioga Downs owner Jeff Gural said in a news release. “There are countless organizations doing amazing work, often without the budget they truly deserve, and these grants aim to amplify their impact. I am happy we could increase our giving from $1.5 [million] to $2 million this year as we want to help as many organizations as possible in the local communities that we serve.”
