This spring, our friends at the Alliance with Washoe County Medical Society (AWCMS) awarded For Kids Foundation with a generous $1,000 grant to help fund Program Awards for children.
Celebrating 70 years serving our community, “AWCMS advances the health of the community through educational and philanthropic works, health advocacy programs and support of the Washoe County Medical Society (WCMS).”
In the 1970s ” . . . AWCMS established the Community Action Fund (CAF) Committee which awarded local non-profit grant applicants with funding for their health and service-related endeavors. Since 1949, AWCMS has awarded over $300,000 in nursing scholarships and $2 million to community organizations in Washoe County.”
We are able to provide Northern Nevada children access to products and services promoting health and wellbeing thanks to the support of AWCMS.
