PNG is happy to announce that we would like to support senior service organizations as well as senior citizens that are located within Plymouth County! The PNG understands that funding provided to senior service organizations is limited or non-existent making it very hard to support program participants. We also realize that because of limited funding options, it can be very difficult to support individuals in the community overcome hard times or emergency situations. In response to this, the PNG has formed a “PNG Grants Committee”. This Committee has created a process to distribute funds that are raised by certain PNG fundraisers to support the community at large.

A senior service organization can simply fill out a relevant application and submit it per the directions on the application. All applications are reviewed on a monthly basis by the Committee. ALL applications will a receive a written response notifying them as to whether or not their request is approved or denied. Eligibility and application information can be accessed below!
