Take Heart Huron offers start-up funding for community
groups to start iiiajects to help people live healthier
Is your group looking for funding
for a project that will help people
live a healthier life? Take Heart
Huron may be able to help.
The Opportunity Fund, sponsored
by Take Heart Huron, has start-up
funding for new projects. Marilyn
King, Take Heart Huron Coordina-
tor with the Huron County Health
Unit, says she's hoping community
groups across the county will ap-
ply.
"We're hoping for proposals from
a variety of community groups
who are interested in helping Hu-
ron County residents eat healthier
foods, be more physically active
and be smoke-free. We'll be watch-
ing especially for plans that work
with children and youth, people
living in low income situations and
older adults."
The Opportunity Fund is for non-
profit community groups that want
to make an impact in their commu-
nity.
A variety of groups were funded
last year for projects which includ-
ed school and workplace nutrition,
and building physical activity op-

If your non-profit group has an
innovative new project that focuses
on healthy living, you can apply for
up to $750 in start-up funding. The
funding must be used by the end of
2009.
Priority is given to projects that
show they can continue beyond the
start-up phase and that work with
other community organizations.
Take Heart Huron encourages
Huron County residents to eat
healthier foods, to include physi-
cally active in their daily routine,
and be smoke-free.
Leading a healthy, active life
improves sleep patterns, relieves
stress and helps prevent the onset
of chronic diseases such as heart
disease, stroke, type II diabetes,
high blood pressure and some
forms of cancer.
To get an application kit, contact
Marilyn King, Take Heart Huron
Coordinator, at (519) 482-3416 or
1-877-837-6143 if long distance.
Applications are due by Jan. 30.
