The Shepherd's Center of Greater Winston-Salem was awarded a $25,000 grant by the Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust of Winston-Salem in July 2003.

 

The funds from the two-year grant will be used to further expand the Faith In Action Care Program which provides respite care, visitation, transportation and minor home repair services to homebound older adults in the greater Winston-Salem community.

 

The Shepherd's Center interfaith ministry has significantly expanded the Faith In Action Care Program over the last three years. With requests for services growing dramatically, the generous support of the Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust will be used to respond to the needs of older adults in our community.

 

The Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust was created in 1947 by the will of Mrs. William N. Reynolds of Winston-Salem . Three fourths of the Trust's grants are designated for use for health-related programs and services across North Carolina and one fourth is designated for the poor and needy of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County.
