In addition, the WCHCF, Inc. gave an additional $1,000 for the purchase of supplies for first aid in each classroom, for the nurses station, and nutritional guides for every campers family.

FRAGILE KIDS FOUNDATION GRANT

Thanks to the Fragile Kids Foundation for a mini-grant that helped to purchase 8 communication devices for the F.A.C.E.S. Autism Camp. These devices allowed for non-verbal children to express their wants and needs throughout the camp day.

Because F.A.C.E.S. Camp is held at Faith Baptist Church in Monroe, these devices are available for children in the Sunday School and Children's Church program plus Stone Soup, a once a month Friday night respite for children of all abilities.

F.A.C.E.S. continues to meet the needs of the Walton County community in more ways than just monthly meetings by sharing our resources with the Children's Ministries at Faith Baptist church.

Thank you to the Fragile Kids Foundation for allowing us this opportunity to give back even more to our community!
