ROCKFORD — Rock House Kids was awarded a $5,000 grant from the J.L. Clark Legacy Foundation to improve safety measures, including purchasing 20 portable radios.
“We are so blessed to have strong community supporters like J.L.Clark who have a heart for our kids and our mission,” said Dee Lacny, Rock House Kids executive director. “Safety is our main priority for staff, volunteers and most importantly, the children we serve.”
The nonprofit is a safe space for inner city kids in grades 1-12.
The J.L. Clark Legacy Foundation supports charitable organizations whose efforts go towards community benefit. J.L. Clark employees also volunteer.
