ROOTED receives donations from area community foundations

Sturgis Area Community Foundation, the Three Rivers Area Community Foundation, White Pigeon Area Community Foundation and Constantine Area Community Foundation have announced a collective donation of $100,000 to ROOTED of St. Joseph County’s Safe House Capital campaign.

ROOTED officials said the contribution will be applied toward their $300,000 fundraising goal. The Centreville-based agency plans to construct a transitional safe house for children in crisis entering the foster care system within St. Joseph County.

The donation is comprised of $50,000 from Three Rivers Area Community Foundation’s Special Projects Fund; $40,000 from Sturgis Area Community Foundation Fund for Sturgis; and $5,000 collectively from White Pigeon and Constantine Community Foundation funds.

Three Rivers’ $50,000 grant also qualifies for a matching grant offered by Fibre Converters Foundation of Constantine.
