RadioShack Awards Grant

RadioShack Corporation has awarded Family and Children’s Aid, Inc, a Neighborhood Answers Grant. The agency is one of 131 agencies to receive grant money in the latest quarterly cycle of RadioShack’s grant program. The program funds causes that help families protect children from abduction, violence, and abuse.

Neighborhood Answers Grants are accepted year-around and are evaluated and awarded quarterly by local review councils coordinated through RadioShack district offices.

“Through the Neighborhood Answers Grant program, RadiioShack has the ability to support programs in local communities that aim to help keep children safe,” said Laura Moore, senior vice president and chief communications officer for RadioShack Corporation, whose main offices are in Forth Worth, Texas.

To be considered for a Neighborhood Answers Grant, an organization must be a tax exempt nonprofit designated as a 501(c) (3) by the Internal Revenue Service, offer solutions to help prevent family violence/abuse and/or child abduction, and directly impact or benefit, through programs or services, a RadioShack community. Grant requests should be limited to $500 or less.
