Funds Coming For Nevada Seniors

Truckee Meadows Healthy Communities (TMHC), Renown Health and the Washoe County Health District received the BUILD Health Challenge award. That’s a $250,000 grant to support Caring For Reno’s Elders program. The award comes as a collaborative result of more than 30 local organizations submitting a proposal for the funding. Renown Health is matching the grant alongside other pledged funding from the community, bringing the current C.A.R.E. support to $580,000. The partners say they are honored that Truckee Meadows was selected as one of 18 communities to receive funding from BUILD in the 2019-2021 term.
