Specific Need
Money is always an issue. This year the county commissioner discontinued our annualsupport through the county tax system. This has left a large hole in our financialsupport. In addition to that loss in our general fund, we are trying to generate support for the rehabilitation of the Black Business District and the Farmington Christian Church.
