The Day - Bank foundation awards $16,650 | News from southeastern Connecticut Bank foundation awards $16,650 Bank foundation awards $16,650

The Jewett City Savings Bank Foundation awarded grants totaling $16,650 to community organizations dedicated to health and wellness in the communities served by the bank.

Included in the most recent grants was a $5,000 award to the Day Kimball Hospital's Care in a Heartbeat campaign to raise funds for a new emergency department, presented as the first installment of a five-year $25,000 pledge by the foundation.

A Millbrook private family foundation has made a $441,000 commitment to Lewis County youths.

Steve Densmore, Dyson Foundation spokesman, said the foundation has always had an inclination to support nonprofits that are connected to youths, particularly in rural areas.

Lewis County is serving as a proving ground where programs are needed in upstate communities, he said. The foundation hopes support offered by established organizations will serve as models for other funders and provide beneficial human service programs elsewhere.

Support includes partnerships with the Northern New York Community Foundation, with which the Dyson Foundation already has a five-year working relationship. People interested in being on that committee should call the Community Foundation at 782-7110.

The Dyson Foundation also recently awarded a $236,000 grant to the North Country Prenatal/Perinatal Council to develop an 18-month initiative to address an increase in adolescent pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections throughout Lewis County over the past several years. According to a news release issued by the council, the most recent available data from the state Department of Health showed Lewis County had 43 teenage pregnancies in 2008, compared with only 31 in 2005.

We have not been able to serve Lewis County with adolescent pregnancy prevention services as the total number of teen pregnancies is considered low by New York state, said Penny A.
