The Dragonfly House Children’s Advocacy Center in Mocksville has received $40,000 through The SECU Foundation Mission Development Grants.
Funding focused on technology education, support against domestic violence, housing and homelessness, child advocacy and youth services, healthcare services, and crisis intervention.
MDG funding began eight years ago and has since become an integral part of the foundation’s annual grantmaking process. The program laid the groundwork for the foundation to expand its criteria for two additional capacity building programs – Rural Opportunity and Disaster Response grants. These small dollar high-value grants are helping to strengthen the infrastructure and sustainability of non-profits that provide vital services to their communities, particularly in underserved and rural areas.
“The MDG program has added a layer of depth to our funding strategy that is helping organizations with strategic planning efforts to hopefully achieve more than they thought possible,” said SECU Foundation Executive Director Jama Campbell. “The success of this program speaks to the critical need for this type of funding among non-profits, and we couldn’t be more pleased to be part of their journey and future success.”
