(Community Benefit Funds)…Funds allotted the Board of Supervisors.
The funds are to be used by each Board member to help agencies or groups in each Board member’s District. Tuesday District 4 Supervisor Ryan Kelley sought to use some of his allotted funds to help the less fortunate. Kelley asked that $1,000 go to the Westmorland Community Food Pantry. $1,000 for the Calipatria-Niland Family Resource Center, and $3,000 to the Imperial Valley Food Bank. District Five Supervisor Ray Castillo also asked that $1,000 out of his Community Benefit account go to the Brown Bag Coalition in Calexico.
