The more than 100-year-old club awarded grants to seven local nonprofits. The grants, plus money contributed by the club for leadership, scholarship and training programs and the Thanksgiving feeding effort, total $10,000. ‘We’re very proud to be supporting organizations that are doing great work in Delray Beach,’ club co-president Trish Jacobson said. ‘All of the nonprofits receiving grants are having a positive impact in our community.’ Added club co-president Joann Haros, ‘Our club traces its roots back to Delray Beach’s early years and has been supporting community efforts ever since. We’re pleased to be able to continue the tradition by providing grants to these many organizations in Delray Beach.’ ABOVE: Blaise Maris and Vince Farfaglia of the South Florida Collegiate Baseball League, one grant recipient, kneel with (l-r) Lauren Fournier, Patti Alexander, Michele Harrington, Jacobson, Haros, Kae Jonsons, Adrian Rackauskas and Leanne Griffith.
