CORA and Open Arms Ministry receive grant
By Charlotte Underwood
CAMPBELL COUNTY, TN (WLAF)- In September, the Campbell Outdoor Recreation Association (CORA) and Open Arms Ministry received a grant for $18,550 from the Cumberland Forest Community Fund and the Nature Conservancy, two organizations that “invest deeply in their local communities.”
The grant will be used for the purchase of a refrigerated trailer, which will be utilized for the Campbell County Hunters for the Hungry program.
“We are designing one, it will be an enclosed trailer, it will be insulated and we will put individual freezers in it, that way we will only have to handle the meat once. And we have several places we distribute to, for example we distribute to Open Arms, that way the meat is in a freezer continually,” said CORA member Tommy Overton, who handles the Hunters for the Hungry Program here locally.
