Outreach Awarded $100,000 Grant by AllOne Foundation & Charities

Outreach – Center for Community Resources (Outreach) is grateful and thrilled to have been named one of ten recipients of a $100,000 grant from the AllOne Foundation & Charities’ (AOF&C) Founders Impact Grant as part of AOF&C’s 10th Anniversary Celebration.

In April, AOF&C visited Outreach’s Seventh Avenue Center to tour the facility, speak with staff, and gain a firsthand look at the work generously supported by AOF&C. During this visit, AOF&C surprised Outreach with a check. Outreach excitedly kept this information confidential until the official 10th anniversary celebration.

On Friday, October 10th, at The Banks Waterfront in Pittston, PA, AOF&C kicked off its 10th Anniversary celebration by announcing the Founders Impact Grant recipients who will help meet its goal of awarding $50 million to Northeast and North Central Pennsylvania by the end of this anniversary year.

Outreach received a $100,000 unrestricted grant to address the organization’s greatest needs. Outreach supports individuals and families by providing services to help them attain stability and economic self-sufficiency. Outreach offers a variety of evidence-based programs, including Parents as TeachersⓇ, SafeCareⓇ Augmented, and the Incredible YearsⓇ Parenting Program. Outreach also offers a toddler play & learn group, family reunification services, supervised visitation, prison reentry, life skills programming, GED tutoring, and workforce development.

Since 2022, one program, graciously supported by AOF&C, has been Outreach’s postpartum doula services. This program connects pregnant women with an Outreach postpartum doula to provide education and support during the earliest days of their infant’s life. AllOne has been a valuable partner in bringing this critical service to families in Lackawanna County.
