The Jason Program is pleased to announce the receipt of a $2000 grant from the Common Good Grant program of Bowdoin College. This program, established last year to provide students an experience in philanthropy, received an anonymous donation of $10,000 this year. Volunteer students, with faculty support, reviewed 40 applications for this grant. They chose 7 local non-profit organizations to share in the award. At the award ceremonies, the students, faculty, and recipients shared a common thread of passion and compassion for the human spirit. We are not only grateful for the award, but are touched by that collective drive to help people in need and the rich rewards it will bring to them.
