200,000 More Reasons Names Fall 2022 Grant Recipients

The 200,000 More Reasons grant review committee met recently and reviewed 40 grants requesting more than $70,000 for feeding and literacy ministries.

“Unfortunately, we had only $30,000 to grant, and only three ministries received the full $2,000. Most everyone’s full request could not be met, and we could not approve awards for 11 applicants. Which is just so unfortunate,” shared Mary Lewis Dassinger, Project Coordinator for the 200,000 More Reasons ARUMC initiative.

“The food collections encouraged through Ingathering and financial support to 200,000 More Reasons makes a difference to our United Methodist feeding ministries,” she added.
