Seven La Habra Groups to Split $68,000 City Grant
Several local groups will share $68,000 from the city after officials decide how to divide the funds later this month.
The city has earmarked the money for community grants to seven organizations chosen to receive it.
The groups--La Habra Arts Assn., Sonora High School, La Habra High School, La Habra-Brea Boys & Girls Club, Friends of the Library, La Habra Depot Theater and the La Habra Chamber of Commerce--submitted proposals for how they would use the money.
City Council members will weigh these requests:
* $500 to the Arts Assn. to help pay for its annual La Habra Arts Festival.
* $500 to Sonora High for its graduation night festivities.
* $1,000 to La Habra High for its grad night party.
* $29,000 for Boys & Girls Club youth programs.
* $3,000 to the Friends of the Library for magazine subscriptions and new books.
* $5,500 to the Depot Theater for its youth programs.
* $28,500 for the Chamber of Commerce.
The council will vote on the grants at its Nov. 21 meeting.
