American Rescue Funds
Has anyone applied for, and been granted, funds from the American Rescue Plan for upgrades to existing facilities, enhancements, or physical improvements?

If so, how do you manage your donations and pledges in TAM or with another database?

As we develop the next issue of Hand to Hand, we're looking for stories of all kinds on what people have been discovering as they re-open. I've been wondering if anyone was tackling the issue directly, for...
