Two grants for $1,500 were received for area projects from South Central Iowa Community Foundation in presentations made last week. One of the recipients was the Upper Limits, the Ringgold county teen center in Mount Ayr, and the other was to the Diagonal Printing Museum in Diagonal.
An attendance challenge raised $2,000 for the Upper Limits, the Ringgold county teen center in Mount Ayr, over the past three monts. The Mount Ayr Record-News said it would donated $1 for every youth who visted the teen center beginning November 1. Attendance records show that there were 30 to 80 students attending the teen center per weekend evening. The Mount Ayr Record-News donated $1,000 which was matched by the Dekko Foundation.
