The Fulton County Community Foundation has awarded a $1,000 grant to The Outlet Youth Center in support of the Youth Center’s after-school program.

Since opening in 2020, The Outlet Youth Center has grown into a safe and welcoming space for local youth. But with constant use, some of the games and equipment have worn out. Thanks to this grant, the Youth Center will be able to replace broken items and stock its snack cabinet for the new school year.

“We are so thankful for NICF supporting our mission,” said Taylor Showley, Executive Director of The Outlet Youth Center. “Not only are we a safe place for youth, but also are a FUN place for youth. It’s a blessing to have someone contribute to the fun and joy of our youth!”

Gifts to community funds make projects like this possible. To learn how you can help create more opportunities for local youth, or to apply for future grants, visit www.nicf.org or contact Fulton County Director of Development Brian Johnson at 574.224.3223.
