2010-2011 Alcohol Education Grant Program
Since 1948, the Mecklenburg County ABC Board has directed part of its profits back to the community through a statutory distribution under Alcohol Education. As of June 30, 2010, the Board has returned $46,988,403 to organizations in our community that prevent, educate about, and treat substance abuse. Since 1996, part of that money has supported a grant program. Eligible organizations designated as 501-C(3) according to the Internal Revenue Service who provide programming that specifically deals with substance abuse prevention, education, treatment, or research in the field of substance abuse have received financial support.
This year, the Board has awarded $533,155 to the following organizations:
