Foundations award grants to Family & Children’s Society in Binghamton

BINGHAMTON — Two organizations have awarded the Family & Children’s Society, Inc. of Binghamton grant awards for capital improvements at its facility.

The Steward W. and Willma C. Hoyt Foundation, Inc awarded a grant of $25,000 to remove asbestos ahead of upcoming renovations at the Society’s office at 257 Main St. in Binghamton.

The renovations follow water and smoke damage at the building due to a fire next door last February, according to a news release.

The fire forced the Family & Children’s Society to move its Binghamton office to 229 State St., the agency said on its website.

Additionally, the Conrad and Virginia Klee Foundation awarded the organization $58,000 to help replace its heating and cooling system.

The Family & Children’s Society says it provides assistance, care and counseling to strengthen and support individuals and healthy relationships in the Southern Tier.
