| HOLT FUND AWARDS GRANTS
The Otis Health Care Center (OHCC) was the recipient of two awards for 2003 from the Fannie Holt Ames and Edna Louise Holt Fund, administered by Fleet Charitable Trust Services. The first, in the amount of $85,440, is for architectural and engineering fees related to planning the expansion of Heins Home, the 14-bed residential care home. The second, for $38,100, is to support the development of a long-range home- and community-based eldercare plan for the West River Valley. Congratulations to OHCC grant specialist Bob Crego, who wrote these grant applications. The OHCC also received a grant in the amount of $8,000 from the Vermont Housing Conservation Board to research the feasibility of expanding Heins Home. The town of Townshend and the OHCC have jointly submitted a grant application to the Vermont Community Development Program for the expansion of Heins Home, in the amount of $180,000; notification will be received in March.
