            • Long term support for the Fairdale community
            • The DeKalb County Nonprofit Partnership (DCNP) adds staff and expands programming
            • Girl Scout Troop in University Village started (Grants in Action Story)
            • School bus provided for Children’s Learning Center (Grants in Action Story)
