A
n unprecedented 20 local nonprofits and projects were awarded IMPACT grants totaling $81,251 by the Greater Polson Com-
munity Foundation in November. “We had a lot of applications for funding,” said Jennifer Rolfsness, executive administrator. They included a number of very worthy projects
that benefit the community and narrowing them down was a difficult decision by the hardworking grants committee. “Being able to give $81,000 to local nonprofits is pretty important.”
