The Wood County Committee on Aging, Inc. (WCCOA) is partnering with Wood County Job and Family Services for its ninth annual Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Holiday Outreach Project.

The project provides aid to applicants during the 2022 holiday season to help relieve the financial burden to grandparents raising grandchildren.

A completed application must be submitted to determine eligibility. One application per household with grandchildren ages 0-17 will be considered annually.

The deadline for applications is Thursday, December 1.

Applications may be returned to any of the eight senior centers of WCCOA.
