Financials
Senior Services received $12,571 in December from the Area Agency on Aging. This is the equivalent of two months payments. The Cash Balance was $15,330. Congregate contributions averaged $3.26 and HDM $3.42 in November. Donations received included Mertz Ford $1000, Millstadt Columbus Club $1,857 and Bereitschaft Meals on Wheels $ 1,000. The Bus Fund received $1000 in donations.
Patty attended the SHIP meeting and applied for SHIP grant and we if we are awarded we expect $2,500 but not sure of the exact amount.
Patty has contacted the St Clair County 911 chairperson into Emergency Assistance Program for Millstadt area seniors. The program is free and offered in other communities and would be beneficial in that emergency providers would be aware of mobility or disability information before they arrive at someone’s home. He is going to call me back. She is also inquiring about the Postal Alert program.
