Field of Interest Grants

Field of Interest (FOI) grants are unique and awarded
on a periodic basis as needs arise.

Town of Mills River Mayor, Chae Davis, receives a Field of Interest grant for the Mills River Park from McCray Benson.

Field of Interest grants are awarded from funds established by donors who are perhaps passionate about a particular cause or program area, but also know that specific needs and organizations may change over time. For example, donors can support a general interest area such as Arts & Culture or get a bit more specific in wishing to support youth music or theater programs.
