2019 Supporters Appreciation Day and Allstate Insurance grant award

During July 2020 CDWT Received $5,775 in Grants

During July 2020 CDWT received a $5,000 grant from ALLSTATE INSURANCE. Our organization was nominated by Florida Insurance Agent Sean Valley and ALLSTATE selected us as a 2020 grant recipient. We also received a grant from ALLSTATE in 2019. We are very honored for the recognition and support. CDWT was also nominated by Jason Ocoma as a supported charity by the Suburban Gay Bowling League. We were one of two organization chosen by the league and we received a $775 grant. Support and encouragement by the people who nominated us and recognition from the organizations that reviewed our efforts and chose to support us is incredibly important to us. We hope to get back into action as soon as the pandemic is over and we can safely return to our water projects. We are monitoring our projects, exploring opportunities to collaborate with other organizations and we are refining our plans to make 2021 our most productive year. THANK YOU to everyone who continue to support and encourage us throughout the year!
