Histroic Cabarrus Association Inc

A GRANT OF $20,000 WILL ALLOW HCA TO RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATIONS, PROVIDING PAY FOR OUR TWO STAFF MEMBERS AND ALLOWING THEM TO RETURN TO NORMAL PAID HOURS FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2021. THIS AMOUNT WILL ALSO SUPPORT THE BUILDING OF THE NEXT LOCAL HISTORY EXHIBIT OPENING IN OCTOBER, AND THE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES AND TOURS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT EXHIBIT. IT WILL AID IN THE PUBLISHING AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE CABARRUS GOLDEN NUGGET JOURNAL FOR THE REST OF 2021. PART OF THE AMOUNT WILL SUPPORT THE LAUNCH OF THE HOPS AND HISTORY LECTURE SERIES, AS WELL AS REESTABLISHING THE LOCAL HISTORY AND GENEALOGY LECTURES THAT ARE PROVIDED AT THE CABARRUS COUNTY SENIOR CENTER FOR FREE. THIS FUNDING WILL SUPPORT HCA'S RETURN TO NORMAL AND PROMOTE OUR ABILITY TO PROVIDE A FREE EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT AND PROGRAMMING THAT WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DO WHILE CLOSED.
