Ontario Trillium Foundation Funding Purchase Two Vehicles
In 2020, ONE CARE was pleased to receive $130,000 in funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation to purchase and outfit two new accessible vans which will support the agency’s transportation program in Huron and Perth Counties. ONE CARE Executive Director, Kathy Scanlon noted, “The impact of this Ontario Trillium Foundation grant is significant. This funding will be used to purchase two wheelchair accessible vans to support our transportation service which provides over 31,000 rides a year to more than 1,700 individuals who need accessible transportation. This service is essential to support people to live in their own homes and be engaged in their communities. Our current vehicles are aging and this grant will help us to ensure that people get the transportation they need.”
